[Verse 1]
C                Am                   Em                  F
  When things go south at the darkest hour in a grey-blue car at 90 miles
    C                  Am                    Em     Dm*
per hour. Don't worry, babe, this is not a retreat,   it's an escape.

[Verse 2]
C                 Am          Em                   F
  Push the window down, babe,   let the world come in,
C                   Am           Em           Dm
  bursting out your lungs. Chain-smoking Mary Longs.
C                  Am             Em                           F
  At 100 miles per hour you can't quit, no matter how hard you try.
                          C                  Am
No matter how good you've been, twelve angry men 've spoken their mind,
Em              Dm                             (C)
  the verdict's in, you can't catch up with the time.

[Verse 3]
C              Am         Em              F
  From the backseat I see   the world backwards,
C                   Am                       Em                   Dm
  this temple of no doors, this Eden with no floor where guilt is on another level.
C                 Am       Em           F
  The peepshow is free at 110 miles per hour,
C                       Am             Em                    Dm
  as streetlights flash   like regrets   from an ancient time.

[Bridge]
               Am           D/F#     G         G
From different lives, let's hide our love,
Am             D/F#     G          G
  somewhere it won't be tried.

[Verse 4]
C              Am              Em      F
  Don't panic, babe, it's just you and I,
C                Am       Em          Dm
  now close your eyes and drive.

    C                  Am                    Em     Dm
