[Verse]
G Am Am/B C D
Baby, I can't sleep. The cars that pass outside flood my room with light
Em C D
'Til I wish I was gone windows down and rollin' to your door.
G Am Am/B C D
('Cause) baby I see you In the dim light of the bar light, as your hazel eyes go blue
Em C D
And I wish I could hold Your hair back as the liquor takes its toll.
[Pre-Chorus]
G Cadd9 Bm C C/B
But there's miles that sit between us And cities to pass through.
Am Em Cadd9
And I don't want to bear my soul to anybody new.
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
So I'm driving through the hours Thinking of a song.
G Cadd9 D D
Driving through the hours 'Til we can be alone.

[Verse 2]
G Am Am/B C D
Feel that Texas heat as it beats down in the noon day, and you're parked right on the freeway
Em C D
There's nowhere to hide. Just steel frames burnin' down the same long ride.
G Am Am/B C D
Just 20 minutes gone. Shirt sweat on your arm rest and a sadness in your bones.
Em C D
And I wish you were home, 'Cause I'm tired of being strong for when you go.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G Cadd9 Bm C C/B
Still we scale the miles between us. And struggle to get through.
Am Em Cadd9
Workin' on ourselves and workin' on each other, too.
[Chorus 2]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
We go driving through the hours Singing our own song.
G Cadd9 D D
Driving through the hours 'Til we can be alone.
