[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
Driving [Eb] through the long night Trying to figure who's right and [Cm] who's wrong
Now the cat has [Eb] gone [Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
I [Eb] set the belted up tight
She sucks on a match light Blowing [Cm] bronze, [Eb] steering on
And [Ab] I might be more of mine If [Bb] I stopped this in its [Bb] tracks
And said, [Eb] come on, let's [Cm] go home [Ab] But she's got the wheel
[Bb] And I've got nothing except what I [Cm] have on
[Ab] When you're driving with [Eb] your brakes on
When you're swimming with [Cm] your boots on It's hard to say [Ab] you love someone
[Bb] And it's hard to say [Cm] you [Ab] don't
[Bb] [Bb]
[Eb] Trying to keep the mood right
Trying to steer the conversation [Cm] from The [Eb] thing we've done
And she shuts up the ashtray And I say it's a long way back [Cm] now home
And she [Eb] just yawns And we [Ab] might get lost someplace
[Bb] So desolate that no one will [Eb] know where we're from
And I might be more of
[Cm] mine If I stopped this in its tracks
And said, come on, let's go home But [Ab] she's got the wheel
[Bb] And I've got nothing except what I have [Cm] on When
[Ab] you're driving with [Eb] your brakes on
When you're swimming with [Cm] your boots on It's hard to say [Ab] you love someone
[Bb] And it's hard to say you [Cm] [Ab] don't
[Bb] [C] But unless [Bb] the [Eb] moon falls tonight
[Cm]
[Ab] Unless continents
[C] collide [Ab]
[Eb] Nothing's gonna [C] make me
[Ab]
[Bb] Break from [Cm] her side
