Backroad Hurricanes

[Verse 1]

Two lane

Sunset melting

FM cracklin’ like a friend

You left in your mama’s Chevy

Said “boy

You’re never gonna change”

But I’m still here

Same white lines

Just older in the same old frame

But I’m still here

Same white lines

Just older in the same old frame

[Chorus]

I’m just chasin’ backroad hurricanes

Spinnin’ in the smoke and the gasoline

Heartbreak ridin’ shotgun

Singin’ way off key (oh yeah)

Turn the hurt up

Let it hit again

Laughin’ like I never heard your name

If I can’t outrun the pain

I’ll ride these backroad hurricanes

Your name in a black ink smear

Dance floor buzzin’

Boots all stompin’

But I still see you standin’ here

Buddy says “man

Find another”

I just shrug and fake a grin

Every toast

Every joke

Somehow circles back to when

[Chorus]

I’m just chasin’ backroad hurricanes

Spinnin’ in the smoke and the gasoline

Heartbreak ridin’ shotgun

Singin’ way off key (hey!)

Turn the hurt up

Let it hit again

Laughin’ like I never heard your name

If I can’t outrun the pain

I’ll ride these backroad hurricanes

[Bridge]

Maybe someday I’ll slow it down

Trade these storms for a quiet town

But ‘til your memory fades away

I’ll be out here in the wind you made

[Chorus]

I’m just chasin’ backroad hurricanes

Spinnin’ in the smoke and the gasoline

Heartbreak ridin’ shotgun

Singin’ way off key

Turn the hurt up

Let it hit again

Laughin’ like I never heard your name

If I can’t outrun the pain

I’ll ride these backroad hurricanes
