          C                       Am                   F

Smell the truth in hear hair, felt the world at my feet, yeah
             Am          G          C           F
But we were just two kids     in a beat-up car
         Am           G             Am    G     F
Oh I'm still driving home from the things I've done

And I stayed forever

[Sub-Chorus]
C Am  F
        We were caught on the inside
C Am  F
        Left it all on that bedside
Am           G                       C     F
  Give me one more minute with those baby blues
               Am    G
We pull up

[Refrain]
            Am            G        Am   G   F
Oh, she looks back and waves as I wait too long
          Am         G          Am    G    F
I can picture her room as the lights turn on
          Am       G              Am  G  F     G    Am     C
I'm still dancing alone with the way it was

I'm still dancing alone with the way it was

C Am  F G

Give me one more minute with American secrets

Give me one more, give me one more

[Refrain]
         Am             G       Am     G    F
Oh she looks back and waves as she slips inside
       Am            G             Am    G    F
Every hope in the world in those bright blue eyes
             Am     G             Am  G  F
I'm still dancing alone with the way it was

And I'm coming back for you
        Dm                              Bb        F
I can hear your voice calling and I'll be there soon

When the good Lord calls my name
