about

The chorus of this song was stolen from a birthday song I wrote for my old bandmate Emily.

lyrics

DRIVE – by Patrick Spencer

Dm F
If I could eat my toast and drink my tea without seeing your face
C Gm
You hit me pretty hard now I want this pain to go away
Dm F
And I’ve pinned it down and figure out all the things I need to say
C Gm
As if your mind was part of mine and something I could change….. (hang)

Dm F
But it tires me out and I still can’t forget your face today
C Gm
So I’ll go back to thinking about everything I wanted in the first place

(Chorus)
Bb F C
I’m gonna buy an old Pontiac
Bb F C
I’ll put the top down, then I’ll put you in the back
Bb F C
And we’ll drive around, out of town and out of gas
Gm Bb G
I am the Highway on full blast

Dm F
But I can’t walk away with my shoes untied and I don’t know where those dreams have gone
C Gm
You took them all when you turned away but they won’t leave me alone
Dm F
And I could stand forever here and never turn this page
C Gm
So I’m better off to close my eyes and let this movie play
Dm F
And I could stand forever here and never turn this page
C Gm
So I’m better off to close my eyes and let this movie play….. (hang)

Bb F C
Bb F C
Bb F C
Gm Bb C

(Chorus)
Bb F C
I’m gonna buy an old Pontiac
Bb F C
I’ll put the top down, then I’ll put you in the back
Bb F C
And we’ll drive around, out of town and out of gas
Gm Bb G
I am the Highway on full blast

Bb F C
I’ll park that old Pontiac
Bb F C
I’ll leave the top down then I’ll join you in the back
Bb F C
And we’ll roll around till we run out of gas
Gm Bb G
I am the Highway on full blast
