verse 1 
      B 
I can still feel 
     B 
That summer wind blowin' 
      E 
Those four wheels rollin' 
     E  
Underneath me and you 
       
verse 2 
      B 
I can still feel 
                  B 
That freedom just fly by 
         E 
And it's burning like a wildfire 
       E 
In the dark that night 

        G#m  
We were pickin' up speed 
         F#            E 
You were whisperin' to me 
E 
Baby just gun it 
E 
Oh man we were runnin' 

 
     B 
Wide open 
  B 
A hundred mile an hour 
           E 
Heart's my race against the curfew car 
   E 
On out of here highway 

     B 
Wide open 
     B 
Life in the fast lane 
             E 
Radio turned up as loud as it can go 
        E 
And the speakers blown 
   G#m                            E 
We didn't even know where we were goin' 
     B  
Wide open 

verse 3 
     B 
On a straight stretch 
                  B 
Some yellow lined blacktop 
                     E 
You said "What if we don't stop? Go all the way." 
      B           
And I swear I never took my foot off 
        E  
We were fallin', we were flyin' 
        E 
We were chasin' down lightnin' 

 
     B 
Wide open 
  B 
A hundred mile an hour 
           E  
Heart's my race against the curfew car 
   E  
On out of here highway 

     B 
Wide open 
     B 
Life in the fast lane 
             E 
Radio turned up as loud as it can go 
        E 
And the speakers blown 
   G#m                            E 
We didn't even know where we were goin' 
     B  
Wide open
