Capo on three

[Verse one]
Am
We were driving in the country woods and we didn't know why we were there.
Am
Well maybe we were running from the big city or maybe we were running to the

mountain air.
Am
And then we came upon a cabin of a diner and oh, how they did stare.
Am D
I said "Hey...
D
What's the quickest way to your Motel 6, out in these sticks?"
D
Said "Hey...
D
We're feeling kinda weary, we been driving all day and we need a place to

stay."

[Chorus]
A
And they said "Baby there ain't no shortcuts on your way.
A
Oh baby there ain't no highways in these parts.
A Am
You know baby gonna have to drive yourself down every little windy road,
A Am
If you really wanna get to where you're going.

[Verse two]
Am
Well I was sitting on the therapist couch and I didn't know why I was there.
Am
Well maybe I was running from the big issues or maybe I was running to a

listening ear.
Am
And then I came upon a maze of emotion and oh, how I did fear.
Am D
I said, "Hey...
D
What's the quickest way out of this mess to that happiness?"
D
Said "Hey...
D
I'm feeling kinda weary, I been crying all day and I need a little break."

[Chorus]
A
And they said "Baby there ain't no shortcuts on your way.
A
Oh baby there ain't no highways in these parts.
