Bm E
I drove past you’re town today
Bm E
Though I never left the motorway
G A
When I saw the sign
G A
When I saw the sign
D
I thought about you
Bm E
And I found myself so near
Bm E
To someone that I hold so dear
G A
But I was strong enough to steer
G A
I was strong enough to steer
D
Around you
Bm A#
If I took the turn off for your town
D G F#m
Wouldn’t be that hard to track you down
Em Gm
Or to think of an excuse
Gm A
For me to be there
Bm
I could call you first
A#
let you make the choice
D G
Would it be enough just to hear your voice
Em Gm
Or should I just arrive
Gm
And surprise you
Bm A#
When I drove past your town today
D G
I recalled all the things that you used to say
Em Gm
And I wondered why I never had
Gm A
An answer
Bm A#
When you said it was me that could not cope
D G
and I’d never trade comfort for hope
Em
Then I did
Gm A
I could see I scared you
Bm E
No but I’d never ask
Bm E
We both know that I’ve got too much class
G A
When I saw the sign
G A
When I saw the sign
A D
I thought about you
Lead in to the end of the song with a heavy strum riff.
D G A C# G D
Bm E
Did you feel something near
Bm E
Something familiar, something so Dear
G A
Something strange at the end of the day
G A
That took your thought patterns and swept them away
G A
Did you look out the window to the outskirts of town
G A
Where there’s only a road and the Sun going down
G A
Did that Sun blind your eyes so that you could not see
G A
Life passing you by at illegal speeds
G A
Did you remember something you weren’t brave enough to do
G A
Well right at that moment
D
I thought about you
Same exit riff
D G A C# G C
