Car Song

G C G C G Cadd9 Now you rest amongst the rust of these roadside monuments. G In all their former glories Cadd9 The drive in nights that came and went. Em You fought on hard through rain beaten nights D Out past the shadows of state lines Cadd9 Now this victory dance, it belongs to you and I. G D Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 Ashtray serenade on these Indian summer nights. G Out past the cold dark desert towns Cadd9 Under the neon veiled starlight. Em We crossed the Mason-Dixon D Sang with pastures gold and green Cadd9 Now darlin’ won’t you come on home to me. G D I was born in the blizzard of 1977 Em Cadd9 A southpaw heart with eyes that burned California. G Lay me down under the night D Under a veil of the pale starlight Em Cadd9 These Midwest kids got nothin' on California. G D Em Cadd9 G The winter sky is weeping Cadd9 The factories lie in their graves G Like Cold War artifacts Cadd9 Marching in some ghost parade Em D We watched these streets of fire fall and crumble into the sea Cadd9 Now darlin' won’t you come on home to me. G D I was born in the blizzard of 1977 Em Cadd9 A car crash heart with eyes that burned California. G Lay me down under the night D Under a veil of the pale starlight Em C These Midwest girls got nothin on California. After all the tears I cried for you All the times I tried to let you go G Lay me down beneath the night D Under the sadness of this life Darlin take me home, won’t you take me home? G C G C G Cadd9 Now you rest amongst the rust of these roadside monuments. G In all your former sadness Cadd9 The neon nights that came and went. Em You fought on hard through rain beaten nights D Out past the shadows of state lines Cadd9 Now this victory dance, it belongs to you and I. G D I was born in the blizzard of 1977 Em Cadd9 A Southpaw heart with eyes that burned California. G Lay me down under the night D Under a veil of the pale starlight Em Cadd9 These Midwest kids got nothin on California.
