Blank staring at the road

Eighty miles to Idaho

All curled up on the bus

Fever staring in my cup of tea
    D  
And now we're back in California
Bm 
"Hey Storm, five minute warning"
C                             A

Rock and roll, the road, and endless nights

In a hotel bed

And I'll never forget
