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