D# Driving through the long night Cm Trying to figure whoʼs rigth and whoʼs wrong D# Now the kid has gone. I sit belted up tight. Cm D# She sucks on a match light, glowing bronze, steering on. G# A# And I might be more a man if I stopped this in itʼs tracks Cm D# G# And said come on, letʼs go home. But sheʼs got the wheel. A# D# G# And Iʼve got nothing except what I have on. Chorus: D# When youʼre driving with the brakes on. Cm When youʼre swimming with youʼre boots on. G# A# Itʼs hard to say you love someone Cm G# A# And itʼs hard to say you donʼt. D# Trying to keep the mood right, Cm Trying to steer the conversation from the thing weʼve done. D# She shuts up the ashtray Cm D# And I say itʼs a long way back now hon and she just yawns. G# A# And we might get lost someplace so desolate Cm D# G# That no one where weʼre from would ever come A# D# G# But sheʼs got the wheel and Iʼve got to deal from now on. Chorus: D# When youʼre driving with the brakes on. Cm When youʼre swimming with youʼre boots on. G# A# Itʼs hard to say you love someone Cm G# A# And itʼs hard to say you donʼt. D# Cm G# Cm G# D# But unless the moon falls tonight, unless continents collide. Cm G# A# Cm G# A# Nothingʼs gonna make me break from her side. D# When youʼre driving with the brakes on. Cm When youʼre swimming with youʼre boots on. G# A# Itʼs hard to say you love someone Cm G# A# And itʼs hard to say you donʼt. G# A# Itʼs hard to say you love someone Cm G# D# And itʼs hard to say you donʼt.
