All the other girls here [C] are stars, you are the northern [Bb]
lights.
_ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] They try to shine in through [C] your curtains, you're too close and [Bb] too bright.
_ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ Well [Bb] they try and they [F] try, but [Gm] everything that they [Fm] do is [Eb] the ghost of a trace of a pale _ imitation [Bb] of you.
I'll be the one [C] to drive you back home, [Bb] _
Kathleen.
_ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] This party was made with [C] the night air and the chance that a [Bb] smile _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] will wipe [F] its way from your face to one of the boys in [Bb] your line.
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ Well [Bb] you act like you're hip to [Gm] their tricks and you're [Eb] strong, but a virgin, well it's her heart never [F] once had [Bb] a song.
I'll be the one [C] to drive you back home, [Bb] _ Kathleen.
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ _
And I'll have you back by [Dm] _ break [F]
day, _ _ _ I'm going your way anyway. _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ If you'd like to [Fm] come [Eb] _ along, _ _ _ I'll be yours for [F] a song. _
_ _ _ Oh, _ _ oh, _ oh.

_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ Coming round [Bb] the bend, _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ coming round [Bb] the bend.
_ _ Oh, [C] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] well I know you are waiting [C] and I know not _ [Bb] for me.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] But I'm here and I'm ready [C] and I saved you the passenger [Bb] _
seats.
_ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Bb] And I won't be your last dance, [Gm] just your last [F] goodnight.
Every heart [Eb] is a package, tangled up in [F] knots, someone [Bb] else tied.
I'll be the one [C] to drive you back home, [Bb] _
Kathleen.
_ _ _ [C] _
_ I'll be the [Bb] _
one.

_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] So crawl up your trellis [C] and quietly back into your [Bb] room.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ And [Bb] I'll coast down the length [C] of your _ drive by the light of the [Bb] moon.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [Bb] And the next time we meet a [Gm] new kind of hello, [Eb] both our hearts have a secret.
Only both of us know [Bb] about the night _ that [C] I drove you back home, _ [Bb] _
Kathleen.
_ [C] _ _ _ _
