G C G
[Verse]
G C G
I met a little girl and I settled down
G C G
In a little house out on the edge of town
G C G
We got married and swore we'd never part
G C? G
Then little by little we drifted from each other's heart
[Verse]
At first I thought it was just restlessness
That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep
In the end it was something more I guess
That tore us apart and made us weep
[Chorus]
G C
And I'm driving a stolen car
G
Down on Eldridge avenue
C
Each night I wait to get caught
G
But I never do
[Verse]
She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote
When our love was young and bold
She said last night she read those letters
And they made her feel one hundred years old
[Chorus/Outro]
And I'm driving a stolen car
On a pitch black night
And I'm telling myself I'm gonna be alright
But I ride by night and I travel in fear
That in this darkness I will disappear
