[G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C]
I [C]caught her face in hori[G]zon clouds, soak up the [D]smoke from her last [G]goodbye
[C]But I can't feel [G]pain cause there's no one to [D]blame
[C]Averly was always [G]meant to be free, when she [D]left she thought it best to take some [G]company
[C]That's when she broke my [G]chains and we took o[D]ff
[C]They never knew we were gone till the dawn [G]cried
Hey Hey[G], Averly [F][C]
[G]Ain't it 'bout [F]time to [C]see
[G]Where you [F]need to [C]be to[D]night
[G]If you've got the [F]mind to [C]spare
[G]Send it to the [F]ones who [C]care about [G]you
[G]Don't waste your [F]breath on [C]running a[D]lone
[C]Just bring it on home sweet Averly [G]Jane [C] [G][C]
Walkin' down these ol' graveled tracks, cause I lost her at the Great Divide
I got my sweat-stained sleeve to wipe my brow dry
every footprint is caked in rust, while my boots are shining rails I fight the rising dust
Then I feel her face up in the sunrise
They never knew we were gone till the dawn cried
Chorus
Bridge:
[D]And if you feel the highway [C]scream beneath your [G]feet
[D]Just take a look around and re[C]member what you [G]see
Cause you might [C]find a friend you [G]know, burning [C]through the morning [G]cold
To help you [C]find your way back [G]home through the misty [D]haze
[C]Hope to see you down again Averly [G]Jane
I caught the glare of a passerby, just a sittin' on the side of the street
He wore his heart on his sleeve, just to watch it bleed
He said, "Son, you look a lot like myself, if I was you I'd put my dreams back on the shelf."
I said, "When I come home, I won't be alone
I won't be sittin' on the side of the road while the sun cries."
