Lyrics

She's thrown her last tantrum
Thrown it all away
I'm done for good this time
Nothing left to say
My guitar's sitting next to me
She's told me where to go
Got no more sad songs in me
My notebook's full
The screeching tires should tell her
That I'm long outta here
I'm all out of options
And my truck's in goodbye gear
Goodbye gear

I hit the highway
Anywhere is fine
And I'm tired of angriness
Fear and wasted time
Something's telling me this life
It's better just to leave
There's nothing keeping me behind
No future I can see
I'm pointed down the highway
She's in my rear-view mirror
I'm going off to someplace new
My truck's in goodbye gear
Goodbye gear

Now I'm headed 'cross the Wabash
Where the river's deep and blue
Full of dreams of broken promises
And a life that I once knew

By now she's probably wondering
When I'm coming home
She's pacing 'round the living room
And staring at the phone
Sitting by the window
With her eyes all full of tears
Hoping I'll come back around again
But my truck's in goodbye gear
Goodbye gear
