Intro: Am Em G
verse 1
Am Em
We hit the blue fields
G
In the blue sedan we didn't get much further
Am Em
Just as the sun was rising in the mist
G
We were all alone we didn't need much more
Am
So fast this expedition
Em
So vast this heavy load
G
With a touch of luck and a sense of need
Am Em
Seeing the guns and their faces
G
We looked around the open shore
D
Waiting for something
[Refrão]
Am Em G
Shoot high, break low
Am Em G
Aim high, shoot low
Am Em G
Break high, let go
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
verse 2
Em
This was to be our last ride
G
With the steel guitar and the love you give me
Am Em
Underneath the skin a feeling, a breakdown
G
While we sat for hours on the crimson sand
Am C
Exchanges in the currency of humans bought and sold
G
And the leaders seem to lose control
Am
Shall we lose ourselves for a reason
G
Shall we burn ourselves for the answer
C
Have we found the place that we're looking for?
D
Someone shouted "Open the door!" Look out!
[Refrão]
Am Em G
Shoot high, break low
Am Em G
Aim high, shoot low
Am Em G
Break high, let go
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
Am C
Nothing you can say
G D
Takes me by surprise
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
Am
Who says there's got to be a reason
Em
Who says there's got to be an answer
G
We were all alone we didn't need much more
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
G
The sun's so hard on this endless highway
Am Em G
Shoot high, let go
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
Am C G
I've heard the singers who sing of love
Am Em G
Shoot high, let go
G
In the blue sedan we never got much further
Am Em G
Shoot high, aim low
