Put cream in your cup
C#maj7 F#maj7 F#9
Then blow steam off the cup

We walk down Francis, hit the 7-Eleven near campus
F#maj7 F#9
Holding hands like some kids

Then we wait 'til sunset, and hit the liquor store on Selma

The neighbor's dog barks from the trailer

You got my shirts in your car
C#maj7 F#maj7 F#9
I put a punching bag in the yard
G#maj7
Laundry room flood from the rain
C#maj7
The whistling train
F#maj7 F#9
I kiss you again and again
G#maj7
You take photographs from the backseat
C#maj7 F#maj7 F#9
Down the back road in Pata-psco
G#maj7 G#7
We're driving slow, windows are low, and tires are slick from the snow

We get older, we both grow

It's hot, it's cold

I spent all day on the road
G# G#7
I call you up, "I'm heading home"

We hit the pub

I drink too much
G#maj7
You drive me home
G#7
I can't wait to get home
C#maj7 C#
We laugh, we fight, we yell, we take it off
D# D#7
This town's slow, I like it slow with you
