G Cadd9 He never knew their names and never really cared Em D Lying to himself, he was never just a young kid scared G Cadd9 Living on his own with no one to hold on to Em D Nowhere to go and nothing to do Cadd9 But lie awake and pray that one day Cadd9 Someone will come his way CHORUS G All he knows are D Highways and broken hearts Em Cadd9 Late nights and old guitars G D Wondering where you are Em D Cadd9 You're so far away His shoes are worn and tired and not at their best Like a gypsy never sure where he'll be going next Superficial friends, and girls with glazed over eyes It's a good time, but just for the night Then off he'll go to maybe Mexico Then off to Colorado CHORUS Staring through the walls of that motel room Reflecting on his days, the route that he's seemed to choose Will good outshine the bad, can he turn this thing around Should he drop to his knees, just give up now Begging for release in the night Has he gone too far to fight? CHORUS Em D Cadd9 You're so far away Em D Cadd9 You're so far away
