C                                     G 
  Chasing thunder, chasing lightning too 
F                                          C      G 
  You never wondered what they thought of you 
C                                       G 
  You know you can't outrun the great unknown

verse 2 
C                                                      G 
  Somewhere the high cliffs, somewhere the waves hit white 
F                                                    C      G 
  The wind in it's mischief, the palace of rainbows, I 
C                                                G 
  will be here watching you though you may feel alone

While you   find yourself a   blazing highway home 

         F 
I try to sleep 
                           C 
Searching the darkness for something 
             F 
Your soul to keep 
                        C       G 
Here I am sleeping with nothing 

verse 3 
C                                      G 
  Still St. Peter, you don't want to wait 
F                                            C      G 
  Throw it in gear and roll on through those gates 
C                                        G 
  And know no matter where your soul may roam 
            F                 G                      C 
That you'll   find yourself a   blazing highway home 

         F 
I try to sleep 
                           C 
Searching the darkness for something 
             F 
Your soul to keep 
                        C       G 
Here I am sleeping with nothing

C                                       G 
  And may the angel sing you country songs 
F                                          C      G 
  Your mama sang you back when days were long 
C                                         G 
  More beautiful than anything you've known 
          F                 G                      C 
While you   find yourself a   blazing highway home 

         F 
I try to sleep 
                           C 
Searching the darkness for something

Here I am sleeping with nothing
