Gmaj7 & G
I read the pages about me
Em
In her autobiography
C G
They were brief and to the point
Gmaj7 & G
A flash, while you are getting dressed
Em
A memory that needs to be repressed
C G
I'll just wait until it's over
Gmaj7 & G
Since you've gone away
Am D Am D
I never know just what to say
Gmaj7 & G
Since you've gone away
Am D Am D
I never know just what to say
C
Cause I like cars more than telephones
G
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
C
Tonight I'm gonna drive
The silver moon is shining bright
G
Over the interstate
God saying hurry don't be late
Am
Soon the sun will rise
That's when the romance dies
D
And I'm just tired of running around
Gmaj7 & G
I walked to get the mail today
Em
I guess your letter never came
C G
I'll just check again tomorrow
Gmaj7 & G
A flash while you are getting dressed
Em
A Memory that needs to be repressed
C G
I'll just wait without saying a word
Gmaj7 & G
Since you've gone away
Am D Am D
I never know just what to say
Gmaj7 & G
Since you've gone away
Am D Am D
I never know just what to say
C
Cause I like cars more than telephones
G
Your voice in my ear makes me feel so alone
C
Tonight I'm gonna drive
The silver moon is shining bright
G
Over the interstate
God saying hurry don't be late
Am
Soon the sun will rise
That's when the romance dies
D D/B7 D D/G
And I'm just tired of running around
D C
But fuck it I love you even if
I'm gonna feel like shit
G
By the time I get to you
Now the sky is turning blue
C
The stars they disappear
One by one as the daylights nears
G
And yes you're in my head
But that doesn't make you here
C
And I've lost all my friends
But you're the one I miss the most
G
And now I'm almost there
Yeah I'm almost to the coast
Am
And if I had any notion
D
Of how I'm gonna drive my car across
the Atlantic Ocean,
G
I'd be fucking set.
