Tar Snakes
[Chorus]
I’m chasin' them tar snakes
Outrunnin' this heartache
More gas and less brakes, far as the eye can see
I’m hopin' this white line
Wipes you from my mind
Like bleach and turpentine, wipes my memory clean

[Verse 1]
The thought of you is such a heavy load
I bear that burden of your ghost in every place I go
I never learned the luxury of learnin' how to cope
So now I'm gonna hit that open road

[Chorus]
I'm chasin' them tar snakes
Outrunnin' this heartache
More gas and less brakes, far as the eye can see
I'm hopin' this white line
Wipes you from my mind
Like bleach and turpentine, wipes my memory clean
[Verse 2]
The truest form of love you were to me
That's why I had to leave this town and save my dignity
Every place I go is just as haunted as the last
Your smile is in the bottom of every empty glass

[Chorus]
I'm chasin' them tar snakes
Outrunnin' this heartache
More gas and less brakes, far as the eye can see
I'm hopin' this white line
Wipes you from my mind, like bleach and turpentine
Wipes my memory clean

[Outro]
Like bleach and turpentine
Wipes my memory clean
