[V1]
She got that faded jacket and those dark eyes like precious stones
She’s causing quite the racket with the hearts of all them boys in her phone
And I can’t help it lord, a man I am only
So guide me sweet angel, lend me eyes to see
That I wanna blow past that highway exit that I get off at every day
And I wanna show em what I got, and what I got to say
And lord I ain’t got a penny to my name but I believe
That a heart grows cold when it’s left out on a sleeve
[C1]
Underneath that southern sky she’ll be waiting for me
Underneath that southern sky my road stretches out before me
[V2]
Spring, summer, fall, or winter ain’t stopping me now
Snowy sky, grey sun, cold Tennessee ground
And you hold the steering wheel like it’s the only friend you got
Hummin a song about a girl who ain’t nothin now but a thought
[C2]
Underneath that southern sky she’ll be waiting for me
Underneath that southern sky my road stretches out before me
[B]
I woke up in a fire whiskey haze
I’ve been on the run for five long days, days,
[C3]
Underneath that southern sky she’ll be waiting for me
Underneath that southern sky my road stretches out before me
Underneath that southern sky
Underneath that southern sky
