Intro: C5



      C5

I was out on the highway



I was out on my feet

      F5

I was tired and hungry

      C5

I was late for the meet



        Eb5 Bb5        C5

I had a red sky behind me

          Eb5      Bb5   C5

I had the bad guys on my tail

        Eb5     Bb5       C5

I had a hundred different reasons

   Bb5     G5       Bb5 C5

To keep me falling aw---ay

        Eb5 Bb5        C5

I had a red sky behind me

         Eb5          Bb5  C5

With the stars coming into view

        Eb5          Bb5     C5

And the thought that kept me going

    G5

Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



I had the desert on both sides now

I had the lights in my eyes

Of the town I remember

Up ahead in the cold black sky



I had a red sky behind me

I had the bad guys on my tail

I had a hundred different reasons

To keep me falling away

I had a red sky behind me

With the stars coming into view

And the thought that kept me going

Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



       F5

Well I remember that old saying

          C5

'bout how good tomorrow will be

    F5

But will I be lucky to see

       G5

With a red sky's lucky for me



Solo: Same chords as verses



      Eb5          Bb5  C5

In my dreams there is a picture

   Eb5     Bb5      C5

Of me in a big gold frame

        Eb5    Bb5       C5

And the people that I've never seen

    F5             G5

Are pointing at my name



I had a red sky behind me

I had the bad guys on my tail

I had a hundred different reasons

To keep me falling away

I had a red sky behind me

With the stars coming into view

And the thought that kept me going

Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



I had a red sky behind me

With the stars coming into view

And the thought that kept me going

Was soon I'm gonna make it with you



Red sky...

Red sky...

Red sky...
