[Verse 1] [F1] Tank half full, tires low We left town where the cheap bars glow My hand on the wheel, your hand on my song Couple of girls with the night running long [F2] Map folded up in the dash light haze We missed a turn, then we made our way Dust on the hood, stars on the glass Ain't looking back, ain't built for that [Pre-Chorus] [F1] Take the bend slow Let the blacktop roll [F2] Hear that engine hum Baby, here we go [Chorus] [F1 + F2] Open road, take us on Open road, keep us strong Miles on miles, let 'em fly Moon up high, us and the drive [F1 + F2] Open road, hold our line Open road, one more time If the world wants to stay We can still slip away [Verse 2] [F1] We stop for pie at a roadside stand Fluorescent buzz on a paper plate hand You laugh so hard at the grease on my chin I wipe it off and you grin, then grin again [F2] County line signs and a faded blue truck Heard a train somewhere, sounded like luck Windows down, let the warm air in Feels like a story we can live in [Pre-Chorus] [F1] Take the bend slow Let the blacktop roll [F2] Hear that engine hum Baby, here we go [Chorus] [F1 + F2] Open road, take us on Open road, keep us strong Miles on miles, let 'em fly Moon up high, us and the drive [F1 + F2] Open road, hold our line Open road, one more time If the world wants to stay We can still slip away [Bridge] [F1] Maybe someday we'll circle back Trade these boots for a front porch stack [F2] But tonight we got the whole damn sky And two voices stitched in the county light [Final Chorus] [F1 + F2] Open road, take us on Open road, keep us strong Miles on miles, let 'em fly Moon up high, us and the drive [F1 + F2] Open road, hold our line Open road, one more time If the world wants to stay We can still slip away [Outro] [F1 + F2] Slip away Slip away On the open road
