[Intro]
F       Am       G     Dm      Dm    Em    F
F       Am       G     Dm      Dm    Em    F
[Versetto]
C                       F    C 
  I've been out on that open road 
Am                             F         C 
You can be my full-time daddy, white and gold 
C                        F       C 
  Singing blues has been getting old 
Am                             F      C 
You can be my full- time baby, hot or cold
[Pre-Ritornello]
                F 
Don't break me down 
                       Am 
I've been traveling too long 
                      F 
I've been trying too hard 
                 G 
With one pretty song
[Ritornello]
F            Am           G      Dm 
  I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast 
Dm      Em         F 
  I am alone at midnight 
F             Am          G            Dm 
  Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I 
Dm           Em        F 
  I've got a war in my mind 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride
[Versetto]
C                     F       C 
  Dying young and I'm playing hard 
Am                                 F       C 
That's the way my father made his life an art 
C                      F         C 
  Drink all day and we talk 'til dark 
Am                                   F        C 
That's the way the road dogs do it, light 'til dark
[Pre-Ritornello]
               F 
Don't leave me now 
              Am 
Don't say goodbye 
            F 
Don't turn around 
                  G 
Leave me high and dry
[Ritornello]
F            Am           G      Dm 
  I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast 
Dm       Em        F 
  I am alone at midnight 
F             Am          G            Dm 
  Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I 
Dm           Em        F 
  I've got a war in my mind 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride
[Ponte]
F              Am               G       Dm 
  I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucking crazy 
Dm             Em             F 
  I'm tired of driving 'til I see stars in my eyes 
F          Am                 G          Dm 
  It's all I've got to keep myself sane, baby 
Dm          Em    F 
  So I just ride, I just ride
[Ritornello]
F             Am            G      Dm 
  I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast 
Dm      Em         F 
  I am alone at midnight 
F             Am          G            Dm 
  Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I 
Dm           Em         F 
  I've got a war in my mind 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride 
            F        Am       G         Dm 
So, I just ride 
         Dm      Em      F 
I just ride
