By request, You Can Sleep While I Drive...third in a series.

BTW, does anyone have the tab for Love & Rockets' Saudade, from the

album Seventh Dream Of Teenage Heaven? I didn't notice a L&R

directory at nevada, although I could have overlooked it..

Please post or mail it if you do, anyway...this song is a longtime

favourite...

Dm C(2)

Come on baby, let's get out of this town

Dm C(2)

I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down

Bb Am F

There's a chill in my bones, I don't want to be left alone

C(2)

so baby you can sleep while I drive

Dm C(2)

I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar

Dm C(2)

In my pocket I'll carry my harp

Bb Am F

I got some money I've saved enough to get underway

Bb F C(2)

and baby you can sleep while I drive

Dm C(2)

We'll go through Tucson up to Santa Fe

Dm C(2)

and Barb'ra in Nashville says we're welcome to stay

Bb Am F

I'll buy you glasses in Texas, a hat from New Orleans

Bb F C(2)

and in the morning you can tell me your dreams

G7 F C

You know I've seen it before, this mist that covers your eyes

G7 F C

You've been looking for something that's not in your life

Bb Am F

My intentions are true, won't you take me with you?

Bb F C(2)

and baby you can sleep while I drive

Dsus Dm |C C(2) C |

Dsus Dm |C C(2) C |

Am G C

Oh is it other arms you want to

Am G7 C Bb

hold you the stranger the lover you're free

Am F

Can't you get that from me?

Dm C(2)

Come on baby let's get out of this town

Dm C(2)

I've got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down

Bb Am F

If you won't take me with you, I'll go before night is through

Bb F C(2)

And baby you can sleep while I drive

***lyrics & music Melissa Etheridge, 1989--all rights hers...

Back on "oh...is it other arms you want to....", that first G

might be a G7. I think the G sounds better, but be your own judges...

Any requests for my next endeavor?
