Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Customs line Half-awake Sticker on my case says JFK But the sign above the door reads Tokyo Flannel shirt and worn-out boots Cowboy heart in a business suit Smell of salt and jet fuel in my clothes [Chorus] I’m overseas But I still feel country Lost in the glow of these runway lights Different sky But the same old heartbeat You’re in my head on this long red-eye I’m chasing miles But I ain’t outrun you You’re every mile marker in my mind I’m overseas But I still feel country Every road swings back to you in time (oh yeah) [Verse 2] Neon rice fields through the glass English words on a paper map I laugh alone ‘cause I still say “y’all” Momma calls on a cracked FaceTime Says “Boy Just sing what’s on your mind” So I hum our song walking through this mall [Chorus] I’m overseas But I still feel country Lost in the glow of these runway lights Different sky But the same old heartbeat You’re in my head on this long red-eye I’m chasing miles But I ain’t outrun you You’re every mile marker in my mind I’m overseas But I still feel country Every road swings back to you in time [Bridge] Postcard prayers on hotel sheets Boots by the bed Suitcase at my feet If home’s a voice and not a place Then I’ve been there all along Every accent Every street Sounds like you’re right here with me Calling me back through the static and the fog (hey!) [Chorus] I’m overseas But I still feel country Lost in the glow of these runway lights Different sky But the same old heartbeat You’re in my head on this long red-eye I’m chasing miles But I ain’t outrun you You’re every mile marker in my mind I’m overseas But I still feel country Every road swings back to you in time Yeah I’m overseas But I still feel country ‘Cause every road swings back to you in time

Male vocals, earnest and slightly ragged around the edges, with big stacked harmonies on the hook. Verses stay intimate with palm-muted guitars and soft organ pads; chorus explodes with wide distorted chords, a bright lead line, and crowd-chant backing vocals., rhythmic, electric, alternative country, pop, male vocals, country rock, country
