Gone with the Wheels and the Wind

Verse 1: I woke up this mornin’, the sun barely shinin’ through, My self-drivin’ car and my old dog Blue, They left me a note, said they were hittin’ the road, Now I’m sittin’ here wonderin’ where did they go. Chorus: Oh, the wheels keep turnin’, but my heart’s standin’ still, My best friends are gone, and I’m feelin’ the chill, With a twangy guitar and a bottle of rye, I’m singin’ the blues 'neath the wide open sky. Verse 2: We used to ride together, down those dusty ol’ trails, Now I’m left with memories and a heart that wails, My car’s got a mind, and my dog’s got a soul, They left me behind, now I’m out in the cold. Chorus: Oh, the wheels keep turnin’, but my heart’s standin’ still, My best friends are gone, and I’m feelin’ the chill, With a twangy guitar and a bottle of rye, I’m singin’ the blues 'neath the wide open sky. Bridge: I hear the engine hummin’, far off in the night, And Blue’s barkin’ echoes, just out of sight, They found a new road, a place I can’t see, Now I’m left here wonderin’, why’d they leave me? Chorus: Oh, the wheels keep turnin’, but my heart’s standin’ still, My best friends are gone, and I’m feelin’ the chill, With a twangy guitar and a bottle of rye, I’m singin’ the blues 'neath the wide open sky. Outro: So I’ll strum my guitar, and I’ll sing my sad song, 'Bout a man, his car, and a dog who moved on, With every note, I’ll remember the days, When we rode together, down life’s highways
