[B]
Early [E] in the morning, about a quarter to four,
I see [A] my girlfriend walking out the door.
Hand in my car, and we got right in.
And [B] that's when I noticed the shift she was in.
She [F#] turned to me, and said,
Fly out, let's carry the [A] wine, let's carry the [D] crowd.
Take it all [A] the way on.
[E] Take [D] it all the way on.
[E] Take this, daddy, [B] that.
[B]
[G] [B] Well, we drove downtown, [A] and I've been moving [G] around and around
until I understood [B] I was holding [A] the wheel.
She was making [B] out, and all this time I was driving about.
[F#] She's pulling in the hair [F#m] and hugging my neck.
[B] And all I was thinking [B] was, what the heck?
[D] Take it all [A] the way on.
[E] [D] Take it all the [A] way on.
[E] Oh, this [B] nightmare.

[Em] [B]
[G] [B] [F#] I was looking in the mirror, and to my [G] surprise,
it wasn't too big, red [F#] lights shining in my eyes.
I pulled over, [E] and he pulled [B] alongside me,
out of his car, and up in my [F#] ride.
He looked at [F#m] her, she looked at [Bm] him.
The next time he [B] looked, he got a ride.
[D] Take it [A] all the way on.
[E] [D] [A]
[E] [B] [A] Sunrise.
