BILLBOARDS & BRAKE LIGHTS
As recorded by Ray Scott
(From the 2023 Album BILLBOARDS & BRAKE LIGHTS)
Capo 4th fret
[Intro]
C Am F C
[Verse 1]
C Am
Another 700 hundred miles from home
F C
Another 11 hours to wonder why
Am
I can't help but wanna roam
F G
When I could be with her every night
C Am
But somethin' told me as a kid
F C
Said boy, you're bound to run the roads
Am
Like the troubadours before ya did
F G
The jester tends to mostly know
[Chorus]
C
Billboards and brakelights
Am
Are most of what I see as life
F C
Goes rushing towards a cold and lonely end
Am
I'll hang out a little while, I'll share a song, share a smile
F G C Am F C
Then it's billboards and brakelights again
[Verse 2]
C Am
Will she wanna hang around
F C
Will this life with me get old
Am
Will she always love this clown
F G
Or will she decide I'm just a joke?
C Am
I don't know no other way
F C
To keep from livin' on the street
Am
So as long as y'all come see me play
F G
This right here's the life for me
[Chorus]
C
These billboards and brakelights
Am
Are most of what I see as life
F C
Goes rushing towards a cold and lonely end
Am
I'll hang out a little while, I'll share a song, share a smile
F G C
Then it's billboards and brakelights again
[Pedal Steel Solo]
C Am F C
[Guitar Solo]
C Am F C
[Outro]
C Am
Yeah, I'll hang out a little while, I'll share a song, and share a smile
F G C Am
Then it's billboards and brakelights again
F C Am F C
Brakelights again...
