Drive Darling

Em
You close the door and start the motor
C
I roll the window down
Em
I raise my hand and wave goodbye
C
To neighborhood queens and clowns and

Em
Children in the front yards
C
They hide and seek and laugh
Em
I can almost hear you thinking
C
How could these days go by so fast

    G And the rear view could picture D             Em         C What we leave behind G Drive darling, drive darling, D                    Em             C Drive darling, drive darling, drive

Em
A silent conversation
C
No words cause there’s no need
Em
We let the tapes mix up the years
C
And press repeat and press repeat

Em C
The trunk is filled with records
Em C
And books and tears and clothes
Em C
I’m smiling on the surface
Em C
I’m scared as hell below

    G  And the rear view could picture D               Em     C What we leave behind G                Drive darling, drive darling, D                       Em         C Drive darling, drive darling, drive

  G Good morning freedom D              Em      C Good night lullabies G                Drive darling, drive darling, D                       Em          C Drive darling, drive darling, drive

Am C
And when we arrive
Am
The hardest of goodbyes
D
You will dry my eyes
Em C
Somehow you’re always by my side
D
The one who holds my kite
C
And watches over all my flights

G

Drive darling, drive darling,
D Em C
Drive darling, drive darling, drive

G
Good morning freedom
D Em C
Good night lullabies
G

Drive darling, drive darling,
D Em C
Drive darling, drive darling, drive

G

Drive darling, drive darling,
D Em C
Drive darling, drive darling, drive
