D Fm
We're still in Wisconsin As far as I know
Bm Em
Today was Green Bay And tomorrow's Chicago
A Fm
Wish I was lying but there isn't much to report
G D
My phone is dying So I've got to keep it short
D Fm Bm
I just wanted to say...hey
Em A
I've been writing you a road song
Fm Bm
It's a cliché, but hey
Em A
That doesn't make it so wrong
Fm Bm
And in-between the stops at the Cracker Barrel
Em A
And forty movies with Will Ferrell
Fm Bm Em
I need some way to occupy my time
A
So I'm writing you a road song
Em A D Dsus4 D
I sure hope you don't mind
Fm B7 Em A D Dsus4 D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh uh huh
D Fm
I bought you a light blue t-shirt last night
Bm
from some band I couldn't stand
Em
But their logo's all right.
A Em
Some kid threw a bottle onstage He had an arm like a pro
G D
I know it's getting late I guess I should let you go
Fm Bm
But did I happen to say...hey
Em A
I've been writing you a road song
Fm Bm
Don't run away cause hey
Em A
I promise it won't be too long
Fm Bm
I know it's not what you'd call necessary
Em A
And I know that I'm no Steve Perry
Fm Bm Em
But even if you roll your eyes and groan
A
I'm still writing you a road song
Em A D Dsus4 D
That you can call your own
Fm B7 Em A D Dsus4 D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh uh huh
