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


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


        A
And the rear view could picture
E             Gbm         D
What we leave behind
A
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                    Gbm             D
Drive darling, drive darling, drive


Gbm
A silent conversation
D
No words cause there's no need
Gbm
We let the tapes mix up the years
D
And press repeat and press repeat


Gbm                       D
The trunk is filled with records
    Gbm                   D
And books and tears and clothes
     Gbm              D
I'm smiling on the surface
     Gbm             D
I'm scared as hell below


        A 
And the rear view could picture
E               Gbm     D
What we leave behind
A               
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                       Gbm         D
Drive darling, drive darling, drive


      A
Good morning freedom
E              Gbm      D
Good night lullabies
A               
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                       Gbm          D
Drive darling, drive darling, drive


Bm               D
  And when we arrive
                Bm
The hardest of goodbyes
                  E
You will dry my eyes
    Gbm                      D
Somehow you're always by my side
                      E
The one who holds my kite
                          D
And watches over all my flights


A               
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                       Gbm         D
Drive darling, drive darling, drive


A 
Good morning freedom
E                 Gbm     D
Good night lullabies
A               
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                       Gbm         D
Drive darling, drive darling, drive


A               
Drive darling, drive darling,
E                       Gbm         D
