Tom: D
G A
Some people go for gold, then lose sight of their shine
G A
And the sparkle that once was, gets tarnished in mind
G A
They forget what they was after they fell off the track
G A
And their vision that was vivid gets lost in pitch black
G A
Age starts to take place like a bomb that keeps tickin'
G A
And they regret not chasing after it after they had the ambition
G A
The ambition fades away like the red on a rose
G A
And the regret sucks the life from everybody I suppose
G A
But my rose ain't red, it won't die but ain't fake
G A
But when I die, I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak
G A
White Lightnin'
G A G A
(Chasin' white lightnin', chasing white lightnin')
[Verse 1]
G A
I ain't no stranger to the rain, I put the sunshine in my grey clouds
G A
Worked hard for where I'm at, so it's easier for me to sleep now
G A
But I don't sleep I walked the roads from stop sign to street name
G A
No yellow marks on these back roads, so I paint the lines and pave my way
G A
And these framed pics on my wall from my top tens on these music charts
G A
Represent these small towns you'll never see with a big heart
G A
And these lyrics in my songs are the warm spot like a Carhartt
G A
Don't ever forget that one place that made you that person that you are
[Chorus]
G A
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin' on that one lane
G A
Last years boots, broken soles chasin' one thing
G A
Caught up in the storm of life it gets me excited
G A
I guess you could say, I guess you could say that I'm
G A
Chasin' white lightnin', chasin' white lightnin'
G A
I'm chasin' white lightnin', I'm chasin' white lightnin'
[Verse 2]
G A
Let the rain come down 'til I can't hear myself think (Self think)
G A
Let the rain come down and drown the radio out in this little S-10
G A
I wanna go back sometimes just sittin' at Sonic doing nothin'
G A
Chillin' with all my friends on the tailgate rollin' up and jammin' somethin'
G A
Yeah a young gun I was one of those puttin' Jack D in my Dr. Pepper
G A
Had stickers all on my back glass of my truck it made that shit look better
G A
Just a poor boy dreamin' too big for the town that I was raised up in
G A
That's why I represent the underdogs, I want them to know that they can win
[Chorus]
G A
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin' on that one lane
G A
Last years boots, broken soles chasin' one thing
G A
Caught up in the storm of life it gets me excited
G A
I guess you could say, I guess you could say that I'm
G A G
Chasin' white lightning', chasin' white lightnin'
A G A G A
I'm chasin' white lightnin', I'm chasin' white lightnin'
G A
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin' on that one lane
G A
Last years boots, broken soles chasin' one thing
G A
Caught up in the storm of life it gets me excited
G A
I guess you could say, I guess you could say that I'm
G A G
Chasin' white lightnin', chasin' white lightnin'
A G A G
I'm chasin' white lightnin', I'm chasin' white lightnin'
[Outro]
