[Verse 1]
I was [C]driving,
doing nothing on [Am]the shores of great Salt Lake
When they [F]put it on the air,
I put it [Am]in the hammer l[G]ane
I [C]soon forgot myself and I
for[Am]got about the brake

[Verse 2]
I for[F]got about all laws and I
for[Am]got about the r[G]ain
They [C]were talking on the Nine and
all [Am]across the Amy band
Across the [F]road,
they were turning around and [Am]headed south with me
[G]It got so crowded

[Verse 3]
[C]on the road,
I started [Am]driving in the sand
My [F]head was feeling scared but my
[Am]heart was feeling [G]free
[C]The desert turned to mud,
it seems that [Am]everybody heard

[Verse 4]
Every[F]body was remembering to
for[Am]get they had [G]the chills
Then [C]I heard the voices on
a broadcast [Am]from up on the bird
They were [F]getting interviewed by some
[Am]good man whose name was [G]Bill

[Verse 5]
I'm [C]almost there to Vegas,
where they're [Am]puttin' on a show
They've come so [F]far, I've lived this long
At [Am]least I must just [G]go and say,
"Hel[C]lo"

[Outro 1]
