We used to chase that Chattanooga freight

Couple of kids in a Chevrolet

Catch a little air when we cross the tracks

Sipping on something from a paper sack

You hang your shirt on that maple limb

Slipping through the moon to the river bend

Wasn't very long til I was jumping in, jumping in

I guess I'm still doing now what I was doing then

Chasing you like a shot of whiskey

Burning going down, burning going down

Chasing you like those goodbye taillights

Heading west to anywhere out of this nowhere town

Chasing that freedom, chasing that feeling that got gone too soon

Chasing that you and me, I only see in my rear view

Yeah I'm laying here tonight holding someone new

Still chasing you, still chasing you

You always used to talk about La

I heard you got as far as Santa Fe

Oh wait, you know I tried to track you down

I only got as far as Guitar Town

Singing about a girl I used to know, used to know

Well you should know that I haven't given up

I'm just on your radio

Chasing you like a shot of whiskey

Burning going down, burning going down

Chasing you like those goodbye taillights

Heading west to anywhere out of this nowhere town

Chasing that freedom, chasing that feeling that got gone too soon

Chasing that you and me, I only see in my rear view

Yeah I'm laying here tonight holding someone new

Still chasing you, still chasing you

Chasing you like a shot of whiskey

Burning going down, burning going down

Chasing you like those goodbye taillights

Heading west to anywhere out of this nowhere town

Chasing that freedom, chasing that feeling that got gone too soon

Chasing that you and me, I only see in my rear view

Yeah I'm laying here tonight holding someone new

Still chasing you, still chasing you

Still chasing you, still chasing you
