A Little Past Little Rock

[INTRO: ]E A 2x 
 
VERSE: 
 
E                                                          A 
I had to leave my life in Dallas That town will always be you 
E                                                       A 
And every crowd on every corner and every face I'd see you 
          E  
So with nothing more than a tank of gas. 
(E) 
I drove away without looking back 
        A 
And I guess that's how I got where I am 
        F#m                 B7                          
Going anywhere as fast as I can 

 

[Refrão]
        A      
I'm a little past Little Rock further down the line 
E 
Too soon to know what's up a head to late to change my mind 
            A  
I've gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel 
      B7 
I'm learning more with every mile just how leaving feels 
         A 
It's a lonely stretch of black top out into the blue 
E           C#m                        A   
 Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do 
      E                             B7                 E   A 
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you 
 
VERSE: 
 
E                                                    A 
These headlights on the highway disappear into the dark 
E                                                       A 
And if I could have it my way I'd go back to where you are 
       E  
Oh but I can't turn this thing around  
(E) 
And nothing short of breaking down  
             A 
Is going to get me off this road I'm on 
     F#m                  B7 
I'm still a far cry from gone 
 
CHORUS: 
 
        A      
I'm a little past Little Rock further down the line 
E 
Too soon to know what's up a head to late to change my mind 
            A  
I've gotta keep my heart out of this and both hands on the wheel 
      B7 
I'm learning more with every mile just how leaving feels 
         A 
It's a lonely stretch of black top out into the blue 
E            C#m                       A   
 Don't know where I'll go or what I'll do 
      E                             B7                 E   A 
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you 
 
ENDING: 
      E                             B7                 E   A  E  A  E  A  E  A 
I'm a little past Little Rock but a long way from over you.
