(I combined the keyboard and guitar for the beginning)
This motel's famous for its highway view
Free bananas, HBO, an empty pool
Guess you could say I have it made
Wouldn't give it all away
E F#m A B
This van's like a penthouse on four wheels
E F#m A B
Except it shutters and it sputters and it squeals
A
There's a futon with my name on it
G#
I just jump inside and stoned as shit
C#m B A
And wake up when we're back in Baton Rouge
Chorus
E
No matter where I go
F#m A B
Baby I ain't home yet 'til you open up that door
E F#m
I can smell you, I can tell you
A B
That I love you even more
F#m G#m
Than the last time that I kissed you
A B
It's been so long, girl I've missed you
F#m G#m A B E
You're the only place I go when I go home
Life on the road can freeze my soul
I come back here to get warmed up before I go
Just like degrees, sometimes I'm high sometimes I'm low
But with her I'm in a bubble, staying out of trouble
Completely unaffected by the world
I know sometimes it seems like I'm just here and then I'm gone
Like a style or a smile or a song
