G Cadd9 G D
[Verse 1]
G
I was cruisin’ down a backroad
Cadd9
In my old cadillac sedan
G
I got 50 bucks and cigarettes
D
On the dashboard a small fan
G
It must have been late afternoon
Cadd9
When I stopped in a small town
G G/F# Cadd9 Em7
Bought cold bud light and gasoline
D
Then I watched the sun go down
[Chorus]
Em7 C G D
And I said hey man, I'm doing all right
Em7 C G D
Hey man, I got my six string by my side
Cadd9 Em7
‘Cause I love to be so wild and free

Like the eagles in the sky

A warm breeze blowing through my hair
G D
I feel like I could fly
[Verse 2]
G
I’m driving through the countryside
Cadd9
Past fields and trees and lakes
G
Four wheels and an engine sound
D
Is all that it takes
G
I don’t know where I’ll sleep tonight

Likely under the stars

I don’t want a five-star hotel

I’d rather sleep in barns
[Chorus]

The higher you climb the harder you fall
