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