Biography:
Dallas-based American singer-songwriter Max Stalling never expected to be a full-time country and western musician. After earning his college degree from Texas A&M in food science, he worked for Rainbo Bread and Frito Lay. But following the critically lauded and audience-proven successes of his first three CDs, Comfort In The Curves in 1997, Wide Afternoon in 2000, and One Of The Ways in 2002, he traded his lab coat for cowboy boots and has been touring ever since - performing at more than 150 honky tonks and smoky dancehalls each year.

[Intro]
G C D G
G C
Carolina highway, past boroughs and pine breaks
G D
The road's long behind me, every signpost reminds me
G C
My eyes have grown heavy, my wheels drone on steady
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
[Chorus]
D C G Em
I've been here forever, my whole life at least.
Am D
Trapped between morning's optimism and night's fleeting dreams.
G C
Here where it matters, where reality looms
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
G C
This road was a drug when I started way back
G D
Each hill that I killed was like a pill that I took to relax.
G C
Till the peace in the valleys, got a little too peaceful
G D
All the ridges I?ve run and all that I?ve done
G
has left me with eyes full.
G C
Eyes full of the worst, eyes full of the best
G D
Eyes full of the tiredness that won't let me rest.
G C
All the places I go to, no place is brand new
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
[Chorus]
D C G Em
I've been here forever, my whole life at least.
Am D
Trapped between morning's optimism and night's fleeting dreams.
G C
Here where it matters, where reality looms
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
G C
This road was a drug when I started way back
[Solo]
G C
Some people sit still, some people go fast
G D
Some go right to it, some never get past
G C
Laying a map out, they don?t plan just assume.
G D G
And wind up forever in the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
[Chorus]
G C
Here where it matters, where reality looms
G C D G
In the heat of the wide, the heat of the wide, the wide afternoon.
