D G
I've been driving all night
D G
Bathing in florescent light
D G Am
Of a western Tennessee gas station
D G
With a pack of two-way action
D G
I'm subsisting on a fraction
D G Am
And I close my eyes and pretend
C G
I'm on vacation
D
But the light bleeds through
A
And it's all green-blue
There goes my imagination
D,G (3x)
D G
My return fills me with dread

D G
I've been driving all night
D G
Bathing in florescent light
D G Am
Of a western Tennessee gas station
D G
With a pack of two-way action
D G
I'm subsisting on a fraction
D G
Of what used to be a sugar-free
Am C G
Half-melted bag of Tastations
D
That hard candy sensation
A
It's sweeping the nation
D G
And it puts my mind in traction
D G
I'm subsisting on a fraction
D G Am
And I close my eyes and pretend
C G
I'm on vacation
D
But while it melts in my mouth
A
I'm still driving south
In a TV Nation
D,G(x2)
D
C
Like a bad haircut
D
Or a glass of cold water
C D
Shouldn't I say what I really shouldn't oughta
C
You spend half a day in
D
Some of these places
C
Like a flash of white light
D
That's in front of our faces
C D
A state of peristalsis or a parastatic stasis
C
And we're off to the races
D C
Oh yeah and we're off to the races
D C
Oh yeah and we're off to the races
D C
Yeah and we're off to the races
