The chords are pretty straightforward. Basically only two different parts - verse and bridge. You can add some
fancy stuff in if you are so inclined.

Getting warm, getting warmer
C C/B G
Getting closer to the answer

I was working on my grammar
C D
I was driving in my Chevy

It was fast, but not the fastest
C C/B G
I was listening to Cactus
C G
Man you really gotta practice
C D
If you wanna get that heavy
Verse
G Bm
She was there, on the highway
C C/B G
And her eyes said, “Going my way?”
C G
And I loved her in an instant
C D
Like a Turkish cymbal crashes
Verse
G Bm
Getting high and getting higher
C C/B G
Was it smoke or true desire?
C G
Did we start that forest fire?
C D
As we flicked away the ashes
Bridge
Em
Headlights flash in the passing lane
Trying to fill the tank with a little loose change
Staring at the sky wondering where you are
C G
The North Star
Em
Old men dream of nights like these
Pine trees swaying in the clear cool breeze
Looking at your life from a moving car
C G
The North Star

It got dark, it got darker
C C/B G
I got high on a permanent marker
C G
Man, I felt like Peter Parker

I fell apart, at the party
C C/B G
Drinking red wine and Bacardi
C G
My constitution ain’t that hardy
C D
And I’m not much good at mingling
Verse

The wind blew, yeah, it was blowing
C C/B G
And I said “Baby, now where we going?”

We’re were listening to Marillion

I screamed rock and roll’s resilient

Then I started throwing up
Bridge

Good times flash in the memory lane
Every second band’s got an animal name
Loading our your gear from an empty bar

The North Star

Young men dream of nights like this
The clamour of the glamour or whatever it is
Looking in the mirror wondering who you are

Said, “I’m the someone you’ve been seeking “
