[Verse 1] Tank half full, windows down Town signs fading out Last light laying gold Across the hood and the rails My map folded in the seat Just a song and a need For a little room to breathe And a place where I can think [Pre-Chorus] The sky turns copper slow And the whole wide world lets go I don’t need much tonight Just this line and a little drive [Chorus] Take me down that open road Let it carry what I know (Open road, open road) I’ll leave the heavy in the dust And trust the curves to hold me up (Open road, open road) [Verse 2] There’s a diner by the bend Where the coffee’s always thin And the waitress knows my name Though I’m never there too long I’ve got miles in my bones But I’m learning as I go Every mile line in the lane Feels a little more like home [Pre-Chorus] The sky turns copper slow And the whole wide world lets go I don’t need much tonight Just this line and a little drive [Chorus] Take me down that open road Let it carry what I know (Open road, open road) I’ll leave the heavy in the dust And trust the curves to hold me up (Open road, open road) [Bridge] If I never find the end That’s all right with me Somewhere past the next hill Is where I’m meant to be One hand on the wheel One heart finally still Let the long way take its time I’m learning how to live [Chorus] Take me down that open road Let it carry what I know (Open road, open road) I’ll leave the heavy in the dust And trust the curves to hold me up (Open road, open road) Take me down that open road Sunset shining through the glass (Open road, open road) If I keep my heart in tune It’ll find its way back too (Open road, open road)
