[Intro]
D C C G

[Verse 1]
G G G
Well, there's only a few pines left by the highway side
C/G C/G
And they all whistle as the wind rips straight through your pride
Em G C/G
Baby, it's only your eyes and mine
Bm G C/G
And this darkness that grows in time

[Pre Chorus]
Dsus2 Em C
I was sleep at home on that airplane running
Dsus2 Em C
Never looked back but you can tell it's coming
Dsus2 Em C
My highway queen must be hiding something

[Chorus]
N.C C G
And I want you to know I'm behind you
Em C
We could slow it down, honey, let it find you
C G
And I want you to know nobody's leaving
Em C
No, I ain't scared of your demons
N.C.
That's just what makes you a real thing

[Instrumental]

Well, the stars pulled up about a quarter to nine

And you were lying on my car, you were taking your time
Em G C/G
Baby, it's only your hands and mine
Bm G C/G
In this world, you've come so far to find

[Pre Chorus]

Oh, 'cause you left home on that airplane running
Dsus2 Em C
You never looked back but you can tell it's coming

My highway queen must be hiding something
