Snake of Asphalt

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Yeah

Verse 1

Four wheels hummin

Black snakes of hot asphalt wind around the creek

Broken radiator hissin

Left the station sixty miles back without a name

Pre-Chorus

No compass on the dash

No water in the tank

Just some silver coins

Chorus

Take me back

Take me back to Georgia

Way back

To the clay beneath my boots

I can feel it pulling

Yes I feel it pulling

Verse 2

Rusted iron gates

Slamming shut inside a cold stone canyon

Wind picks up

Chilled bone blue is all the color I can find

Pre-Chorus

No compass on the dash

No water in the tank

Just some silver coins

Chorus

Take me back

Take me back to Georgia

Way back

To the clay beneath my boots

I can feel it pulling

Yes I feel it pulling

Guitar Solo

Bridge

I saw the light

I saw the rain

I saw the truth

Too many miles for one pair of shoes

Treading water till I lose my mind

Chorus

Take me back

Take me back to Georgia

Way back

To the clay beneath my boots

I can feel it pulling

Yes I feel it pulling
