VERSE
G#m C#m
Drive on drive on
G#m C#m
The highway bright and long
A G#m E
The river's overflowing
A G#m E
The house's burning down
G#m C#m
Drive on drive on
G#m C#m
The engines on the lawn
A G#m E
We kiss goodbye and drink up
A G#m E
Some hours before the dawn
A G#m E
We kiss goodbye and drink up
A G#m E
I'll miss you when you're gone
BRIDGE
E
So throw me a line
Throw me a line
My heart's underneath
Aside on our feet
The windows are shaking
And so are my bones
The worlds going round
Throw me a rope
CHORUS
E G#m B
A trumpet and a trombone
E G#m B
Still echoing in the hall
E G#m B
And bells ringing out at dawn
BACK TO BRIDGE
E
So hang on to me
Hang on to me
The world's going round
And time's coming round
The headlights are swinging all over the lawn
So throw me a rope
Throw me a rope
CHORUS
E G#m B
I knew you when i was young
E G#m B
The loveliest girl in town
E G#m B
I wish you were still around
E G#m B
E G#m B
I waited a long time
E G#m B
I bore you
E G#m B
I waited a long time
B A E
I lost you
E G#m B
I was sleeping in the backseat
E G#m B
When I got home
E G#m B
I was finally reminded
B A E
I lost you
