Verse1:

D G EWorkin' on a mystery
Goin' wherever it leads
D G ERunnin' down a dream

Verse3:

That never would come to me
A G E E G AWorkin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
A G ERunnin' down a dream
I felt so good like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last tree days the rain was un-stoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
I rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
