Open Road (Edit)

(Tempo: Mid-tempo, 110 BPM)
(Style: 1970s Country Rock, Southern Rock, acoustic guitar riff, smooth harmonies, dual electric guitar lead)
​[Verse 1]
Dust on the dashboard, sun sinking low
Heading down a highway where the wild creek flows
Got a worn-out denim jacket and a beat-up guitar
Chasing down a feeling underneath the evening stars
​[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to the open road
Where the rhythm runs free and the rivers roll
With a southern cross burning in the twilight sky
Singing country rock sweet till the night goes by
​[Verse 2]
FM radio humming through the static breeze
Playing old guitar picking through the sycamore trees
Hard-earned freedom in a simple song
Where the heart stays true and the soul belongs
​[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to the open road
Where the rhythm runs free and the rivers roll
With a southern cross burning in the twilight sky
Singing country rock sweet till the night goes by
​[Guitar Solo]
​[Bridge]
Times may change and the years drive fast
But a 12-string tune is built to last
Lay your burdens down by the county line
And let the music clear your mind
​[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to the open road
Where the rhythm runs free and the rivers roll
With a southern cross burning in the twilight sky
Singing country rock sweet till the night goes by
​[Outro]
Yeah, till the night goes by...
Let the guitars fade, let the highway cry...
(Fade out)
