Capo 2nd Fret
The first version of this song that was posted was excellent. I saw Dierks
play it on CMT's Summerfest though and he had a Capo on the 2nd fret. I think
this way is a little easier.

Intro chord with the run. The run ends up becoming
A Cadd9 chord.
(Verse 1)
G (run) G (run)
Country roads, old theater marquee signs
G (run) G (run)
Parking lots, and billboards flying by
Spanish moss, little hicktown squares
Wild roses on a riverbank
Girl it's almost like you're there, oh
(Chorus)
Every mile a memory
Every song another scene
From some old movie
Goin back in time to you and me
Every day a page turned down
Every night a lonesome sound
Like a freigh train rollin through my dreams
NC
Every mile a memory Intro
(Verse 2)
G (run) G (run)
Red sun down, out across the western sky
G (run) G (run)
Takes me back, to the fire in your eyes
Texas stars, in a purple night
Not seein them with you, baby
Oh they never do look right, no
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Funny how no matter where I run
Round every bend I only see just how far I haven't come
(Repeat chorus)
Repeat intro twice until end
