I drove up from a river town, it was late September early October.

Thought maybe I could clear my mind, and see the leaves turn red.

The tunes up and the window down, on the skyline drive when she flagged me
over.

G C F
C
"hallelujah what a beautiful morning" were the first words that she said.

D E F G
Her eyes were blue as the sky on a perfect blue ridge day.

D E F G
She said, I could use a lift, if your going my way..

And I was.......I was headed south, I was headed out, headed nowhere, or
anywhere, we wanted to go.

The road, stretched out in front of us. She was ready to run it just
like I was.

G C F

Told me she was twenty two, and she'd just been out of William and Mary.

Another summer under daddy's roof, was all that she could do.

Her boyfriend, she cut him lose. Too cold for a wedding in January.

G C F C
She said "that's enough about me, now tell about you"

D E F G
I rambled on, about broken hearts and staying too long.

D E F G
She said "I'm sorry but you were right to move on"

{repeat chorus}

D E F G
Aint it funny how, everything hinges on a twist of fate.

D E F G
she held my hand and said "aren't you amazed" .....

{repeat chorus}
