Capo 2.
Dm
You close the door and start the motor
A#
I roll the window down
Dm
I raise my hand and wave goodbye
A#
To neighborhood queens and clowns and
Dm
Children in the front yards
A#
They hide and seek and laugh
Dm
I can almost hear you thinking
A#
How could these days go by so fast
F
And the rear view could picture
C Dm A#
What we leave behind
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
Dm
G silent conversation
A#
No words cause there's no need
Dm
We let the tapes mix up the years
A#
And press repeat and press repeat
Dm A#
The trunk is filled with records
Dm A#
And books and tears and clothes
Dm A#
I'm smiling on the surface
Dm A#
I'm scared as hell below
F
And the rear view could picture
C Dm A#
What we leave behind
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
F
Good morning freedom
C Dm A#
Good night lullabies
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
Gm A#
And when we arrive
Gm
The hardest of goodbyes
C
You will dry my eyes
Dm A#
Somehow you're always by my side
C
The one who holds my kite
A#
And watches over all my flights
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
F
Good morning freedom
C Dm A#
Good night lullabies
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
F
Drive darling, drive darling,
C Dm A#
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
