I [Dm] didn't [C] check the [Am] app
I [Dm] didn't [C] check the [Am] app
[F] Didn't see the radar detection
I [Dm] didn't [C] check the [Am] app
I [Dm] didn't [C] see the [Am] sign
I [Dm] didn't [C] see the [Am] sign
Now I'm seeing the party lights
I'm [Dm] falling [C] further [Am] behind
[G] Cannonballin'
[F] seemed like a good idea at the time
[Dm] Till I ran aground
in the Allegheny mountains
[G] Driving I-80 in a 70 miles per hour zone
[F] Stuck in Pennsylvania
[Dm]A long long way from my home
I [Dm] had to [C] be in a [Am] hurry
I [Dm] had to [C] be in a [Am] hurry
Going nowhere fast should have known this would not last
I [Dm] had to [C] be in a [Am] hurry
[G] Pennsylvania
seemed like a good idea at the time
Till I climbed that last hill
and the state of charge hit nill
Doing 90 in a 70 miles per hour zone
Stuck in a nowhere town exit off interstate 80
a rolling cannonball all alone
It's [Dm] cold [C] out [Am] side
I [Dm] dream to be [C] where it isn't cold out [Am] side
Watching my range estimate take a dive
on [Dm] this all [C] electric battery [Am] ride
[G] Cannonballin
Okay I'm just stallin'
waiting for the next idea
60 miles at a time
[G] Well dangit we need more charging locations
[F] Is it too much to expect that a 20 mile maximum distance
[Dm] Can be achieved in the next year or three
[G] Sure there will be exceptions
[F] where there is low service or need for electricity
[Dm] but hey that could be solar panel fields with a big battery
a guy can dream can't he
I [Dm] didn't [C] check the [Am] app (repeat and fade)
