CAPO 3


VERSE

C
I was driving back west through the patches of fog 

             Am 
We had the brights turned on and we listened to songs 

F                                 G                     C
I didnâ??t know it then but I was right where I needed to be.

C
You were back at home you were working a job 

                Am 
and you were hangin out nights with your friends at the bar. 

F                                      G                       C
You didnâ??t know it then but you were right where you needed to be.

VERSE

I was driving back west through the patches of fog 
We had the brights turned on and we listened to songs 
I didnâ??t know it then but I was right where I needed to be.
You were back at home you were working a job 
and you were hanging out nights with your friends at the bar. 
You didnâ??t know it then but you were right where you needed to be.

CHORUS 
      F                                    C 
When all you have is whatâ??s inside your pocket, 

    Am                     F            G 
and all your dreams seem stuck on the shelf. 

          F                                   C    Am 
Well you best prepare the way for change is cominâ??. 

        F                 G                  C
Cuz the road will always take you somewhere else.

VERSE

I was waking up to the sound of the raindrops 
while you while you were in the southeast sleepin in truck stops.
I didnâ??t know it then but I was right where I needed to be. 
You were making friends with people Iâ??d never meet 
and I was prayin to God that your band would succeed. 
I didnâ??tâ?? know it then but you were right where you needed to be.

CHORUS (variation) 

When all you have is whatâ??s inside your pocket 
and all your dreams seem stuck up on the shelf, 
you best prepare the way for change is coming, yes it is. 

        F                G                  Am 
Oh the road will always take you somewhere else. 

          F                G
Yeah the road will always take you somewhere. 

BRIDGE

F        G  Am  C              G         F
Donâ??t forget all youâ??ve ever wanted is yours

F        G Am  C              G         F           G
Donâ??t forget all youâ??ve ever wanted is yours. Itâ??s yours.
   
         F                          C
Well the east coast is busy and the west coast is wild. 

     Am              F                G 
The south keeps it steady while the north rolls around. 

       F                               C                 Am
And somewhere in the middle thereâ??s a town that no one knows 

       F           G                 Am 
where every local kid comes out to every local show. 

        F                 G
Oh the road will always take you somewhere.
