Intro verse 1 Chasing thunder, chasing lightning too You never wondered what they thought of you You know you can't outrun the great unknown May you find yourself a blazing highway home verse 2 Somewhere the high cliffs, somewhere the waves hit white The wind in it's mischief, the palace of rainbows, I will be here watching you though you may feel alone While you find yourself a blazing highway home I try to sleep Searching the darkness for something Your soul to keep Here I am sleeping with nothing verse 3 Still St. Peter, you don't want to wait Throw it in gear and roll on through those gates And know no matter where your soul may roam That you'll find yourself a blazing highway home I try to sleep Searching the darkness for something Your soul to keep Here I am sleeping with nothing Interlude verse 4 And may the angel sing you country songs Your mama sang you back when days were long More beautiful than anything you've known While you find yourself a blazing highway home I try to sleep Searching the darkness for something Your soul to keep Here I am sleeping with nothing Outro
