E
[Verse]
E
I didn't wrap my head in roses, I didn't run screaming down the street
Am
I didn't drive off jagged cliffs
C E
or dive in roaring seas
E
I broke no cage door open, I set no horses free
Am
The day the girl at the drive-thru window
C E
Softly smiled at me
[Pre-Chorus]
B
Actually I did nothing
A E
as she handed me a large iced tea
B
an extra packet of ketchup
A E
a small bag of onion rings
[Chorus]
C#m F#
I didn't even smile back at her
A E
I just pulled into the street
C#m F#
Searching my rear view mirror
A E
To catch her eyes on me
B
'Cause there were cars behind me
A E
and I had somewhere else to be
[Solo]
E Am C E
[Verse]
E
Down the street I saw an old man eating as he drove
Am
running over empty cans
C E
lying in the road
E
But the billboards near the highway were full of singing birds
Am
and all the trees were blooming green
C E
in their little squares of dirt
[Chorus]
C#m F#
Every dog chained in every yard
A E
was howling with me
C#m F#
But I didn't even smile back at her
A E
I just pulled into the street
B
'Cause there were cars behind me
A E
and I had somewhere else to be
