Max Stalling

Intro Chords: G C D G

G C

Carolina highway, past boroughs and pine breaks

G D

The road's long behind me, every signpost reminds me

G C

My eyes have grown heavy, my wheels drone on steady

G C D G

In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus:

D C G

I've been here forever, my whole life at least.

Em

Am D

Trapped between morning's optimism and night's fleeting dreams.

G C

Here where it matters, where reality looms

G C D G

In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

G C

This road was a drug when I started way back

G D

Each hill that I killed was like a pill that I took to relax.

G C

Till the peace in the valleys, got a little too peaceful

G D

All the ridges Iâve run and all that Iâve done

G

has left me with eyes full.

G C

Eyes full of the worst, eyes full of the best

G D

Eyes full of the tiredness that won't let me rest.

G C

All the places I go to, no place is brand new

G C D G

In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus

Solo

G C

Some people sit still, some people go fast

G D

Some go right to it, some never get past

G C

Laying a map out, they donât plan just assume.

G D G

And wind up forever in the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.

Chorus

G C

Here where it matters, where reality looms

G C D G

In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
