[Verse]

          G                     C           D
I built a   room for you in the back of my mind
          G                         C               D
Where the   ravenous wolves and the ghosts I know reside
          G                C            D
You were amazing, you were always on my mind
        G                   C                   D
We were   secrets to keep, crows buried side-by-side
       Em                     C
But we tasted a kiss that was sent from below
       G                        D
It was cool in the night, I was old as a stone
       Em                    C
In the back of a car with a child at heart
    G                         D
Who suddenly showed you their teeth


[Chorus]

              Em    C
But you say, "I’m alright
      G       D
Baby, I don’t mind
         Em      C
I’ll get on just fine
        G          D         D
On them long, long drives"

[Verse]

         G                             C                  D
I keep a   letter you wrote before the devil came in the picture
            G              C                 D
Says, "I've   got you now, wrapped around my finger"
             G               C            D
And into the mystic, we were blue and outrageous
    G                       C                 D
And   every night, I would race the Moon and fall for you
          Em                          C
Cause you ache for a drug a that'll never be enough
         G                           D
You're never gonna feel like when he first picked you up
          Em                           C
When he drove you around, bought you powder and flowers
G                     D
Until the thrill was gone


[Chorus]

               Em    C
But you said, "I’m alright
      G       D
Baby, I don’t mind
         Em      C
I’ll get on just fine
        G          D
On them long, long drives"


[Bridge]

Em       C        G               D
   Last night I remembered being seventeen
Em                    C                       G                         D
I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and rites of spring
Em                        C
Spent every night with cassettes that she liked
      G                         D
In a car that I borrowed a lot
            Em                   C          G       D
And I could never get her to believe


[Chorus]

               Em    C
But you said, "I’m alright
      G       D
Baby, I don’t mind
         Em      C
I’ll get on just fine
        G          D
On them long, long drives"

        Em    C
Because I'm alright
       G       D
Janie, I don't mind
         Em      C
I'll get on just fine
        G          D          Em        C
On them long, long drives without you
    G           D
Without you
    Em          C
Without you
           G        D
Drives without you
