Intro Chords: G C D G
G C
Carolina highway, past boroughs and pine breaks
G D
The roadâs long behind me, every signpost reminds me
G C
My eyes have grown heavy, my wheels drone on steady
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
Chorus:
D C G
Iâve been here forever, my whole life at least.
Em
Am D
Trapped between morningâs optimism and nightâs fleeting dreams.
G C
Here where it matters, where reality looms
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
G C
This road was a drug when I started way back
G D
Each hill that I killed was like a pill that I took to relax.
G C
Till the peace in the valleys, got a little too peaceful
G D
All the ridges Iâve run and all that Iâve done
G
has left me with eyes full.
G C
Eyes full of the worst, eyes full of the best
G D
Eyes full of the tiredness that wonât let me rest.
G C
All the places I go to, no place is brand new
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
Chorus
Solo
G C
Some people sit still, some people go fast
G D
Some go right to it, some never get past
G C
Laying a map out, they donât plan just assume.
G D G
And wind up forever in the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
Chorus
G C
Here where it matters, where reality looms
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
Outro chords: G C D G
