[Verse 1]
Used to smoke cigarettes and work at a department store
Say you don't know who that girl was anymore
Drivin' that car your parents bought
You were fifteen when you started drinkin' alcohol, mm
I know you as you are now
You don't do what you want, you let your own heart down
I wish I could take you, take you with me
Let you hit the open road instead of a one-way street

[Chorus]
I know you, I know your soul
Your parents were gospel, they gave birth to rock and roll
I can feel you now, you're eatin' up my bones
I wish I could be the one to guide you home
I wish I could be the one to guide you home

[Verse 2]
There's two types of people, we hate 'em both
Listenin' to the Interstate love song while the highway's closed
I only get you in bits and pieces
Occasional afternoon wrapped up in my sheets, yeah

[Chorus]
I know you, I know your soul
Your parents were gospel, they gave birth to rock and roll
I can feel you now, you're eatin' up my bones
I wish I could be the one to guide you home
I wish I could be the one to guide you home

[Chorus]
I know you, I know your soul
Your parents were gospel, they gave birth to rock and roll
I can feel you now, you're eatin' up my bones
I wish I could be the one to guide you home
I wish I could be the one to guide you home

[Outro]
I wish I could be the one to guide you home
I wish I could be the one to guide you home
