Driving

                  C              
You're revvin and drivin' through 
                            G
the night when those stars line up 
like they should
              Am                   
You've turned in to what you've 
                  F
been through but you used to be of 
good
    C                            
You think of that old photograph; 
       G
you're mom in '89
     Am                            
Your dad laughed said, "She was 
                 F
like that when she'd had herself too
 much wine."


[Verse]
           C                    G
You'd give anything at all to be 
anywhere but here
     Am                          
Your breathing only steadies when 
     F
you start to dissapear.
    C                       
You wanna be in mountains or 
         G
smellin' water by the coast
        Am                       
But you can't get out of your own 
             F
mind so you settle in and coast


[Chorus]
         C               G
You just drive... to stay alive
         Am            F
One more day... passes by

         C                   G
You just drive... through the night
          Am                   F
'til that darkness... turns to sky


[Verse]
        C                          
And you think about your sister and
    G
 the mighty soul she has
           Am                      
She's been sober for a year now; 
      F
how the time seems to pass
     C                             
They told you it would go quick but
    G
 you never tend to listen
    Am                           
And dont you miss your mama, boy, 
         F
hummin' hymnals in the kitchen


[Verse]
         C                         
And the concrete it's the same here
      G
 as it is in Roger's County
      Am                           
And I bet those boys are doin' 
  F
fine, runnin' roads without me
    C                           
And don't you miss the days that 
            G
you'd sneak Jack in football games
Am                           F
No one in this town remebers my name
 anyways.


[Chorus]
         C               G
You just drive... to stay alive
         Am               F
One more day... it passes by
         C                   G
You just drive... through the night
           Am                   F
Until that darkness... turns to sky

              C                  
You ever been drivin' through the 
                        G
night when those stars line up like 
they should
              Am                   
You've turned in to what you've 
                  F
been through but you used to be of 
good
    C                            
You think of that old photograph; 
       G
you're mom in '89
     Am                            
Your dad laughed said, "She was 
                 F
