Road to Montgomery

[chorus]
I’m on the road to Montgomery
In the middle of the night 

Try’na wash away the memory
Of you bathed in my tail lights 

As I drive into the darkness 
I see you faidin’ out of sight 

When I get back from Montgomery 
I’ll make it right 

Gonna make it right 

[guitar and drums]

[verse]
It was an interesting summer
I spent too much time away

Even though I left you alone you’re in my heart
I think about you everyday

Wish I could be with you tonight
That’s the reason why I pray

I’ll find my way back home
And won’t let go
I hate to make you feel this way

[chorus]
I’m on the road to Montgomery
In the middle of the night 

Try’na wash away the memory
Of you bathed in my tail lights 

As I drive into the darkness 
I see you faidin’ out of sight 

When I get back from Montgomery 
I’ll make it right 

Gonna make it right 

Gonna make it right

[guitar solo]

[bridge]
I could’ve been a civil servant
And work a nine to five each day

Then I’d always hear your laughter
And I would never be away

Then I could

Hold you close
Hear your secrets
Chase our dreams
Have no regrets

I’m telling you 
from the heart
From the start

I’ve always dreamed it’d be that way

[chorus]
I’m on the road to Montgomery
In the middle of the night 

Try’na wash away the memory
Of you bathed in my tail lights 

As I drive into the darkness 
I see you faidin’ out of sight 

When I get back from Montgomery 
I’ll make it right 

Gonna make it right 

Classic rock, acoustic and electric guitar, good fills, longing to get home to the wife but have to work on the road
