Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 I was out on the highway

I was out on my feet

 I was tired and hungry

 I was late for the meet

 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 aw---ay

 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 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

 Well I remember that old saying

 'bout how good tomorrow will be

 But will I be lucky to see

 With a red sky's lucky for me

Solo

Same chords as verses

 In my dreams there is a picture

 Of me in a big gold frame

 And the people that I've never seen

 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...
