Intro:
   Bbm Db Gb Bbm
   Bbm Db Gb Bbm

Verse 1:
Bbm             Db
From the backseat
                 Gb
Watch it roll by slow
               Bbm
Perfectly controlled
Bbm       Db
I'm on empty
                   Gb
And my bloodshot eyes
                    Bbm
Are following the light

Pre-chorus:
     Gb
So, stay with me
                        Ebm
I don't even like your company
                      Gb
I just wanted you to comfort me
                            Ebm   Db
While I keep my eyes on the road

Chorus:
             Bbm
So, take my picture, my picture, picture
                             Db
You told me I'm the one you wanted, you really wanted
                              Gb
But you don't love me like I love you, I don't believe you
                        Bbm
I take the keys and I'm gone
              Bbm
And when I'm driving, I'm really driving
                           Db
I'm driving fast because I mean it, I really mean it
                               Gb
I think I'm done with all the speeches, way from the bleachers
                      Bbm
Don't wanna hear 'em no more
Like, from the backseat

Post-chorus:
Bbm                                  Db
From the backseat, from the backseat, from the backseat (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Gb                                   Bbm
From the backseat, from the backseat, from the backseat (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Verse 2:

While I keep my eyes on the road

Chorus:
             Bbm

From the backseat, from the backseat, from the backseat
(Driving from the backseat)
Gb                                  Bbm

Biography

Hailing from the North Shore of Auckland, New Zealand, Balu Brigada is an alt-pop duo led by brothers Henry and Pierre Beasley. Their eclectic sound blends groovy basslines, smooth vocals, and genre-blurring production with expressive storytelling—an approach that has earned them international attention, including a coveted opening slot on Twenty One Pilots’ 2024–25 “Clancy” World Tour. Music has always been a cornerstone in the Beasley household.
