C                      G         C 
Ridin' that highway, feelin' no pain 
                             G            C 
Storm clouds are rising, and I smell the rain 
F                                  C 
There's no one out here, but the earth, the wind and fire 
                                 G         C 
I know I got burned, but she's still my desire 
 
 
C                  G              C 
Send me an angel, Lord, make me saved 
                                  G          C 
These sins on my shoulders, I'll take to my grave 
F                      C 
I deserve better than her as my love, 'cause I did everything 
        G            C * 
That a man could've done 
 
 
G                         F      C 
I try to run, but there's no way out 
G                          F           C 
A twist of fate leaves me nothing but doubt 
F                       C             ** 
I know I'm alone when each day is through 
          Am           C       G         C ** 
But It's better than being in love with you 
      Am           C       G         C 
It's better than being in love with you 
 
REPEAT INTRO 
 
C                       G             C 
A better life waits for me down that way  
                                  G         C 
There's nothing but heartache, I know if I stay 
F                C 
I'm afraid if I see her there, 
                                G     C * 
I'll fall back into falling in love again 
 
REPEAT Chorus 2X 
REPEAT INTRO
