A A7 D Dm A And now his tires roll over the map of blood on the highway A7 D Dm A Making very strange color making very strange smells

Verse 3

A A7 D Dm *Riff And soon it'll be the rain that washes all this away A E D He's pulling into his house his wife is working till 5 A E D While the white exhaust bumper cars travels into the sky A E D He'll sing his song to sleep with a rhythm soft and deep, singing
