D
I roll the window down
                    A      Bm
And then begin to breathe in
D
The darkest country road
                        A
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as
Bm                  D
You are driving me home

Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
To tell the difference between
Shooting stars and satellites
From the passenger seat as
You are driving me home

G
"Do they collide?"
                 D
I ask, and you smile
G
With my feet on the dash
                   D
The world doesn't matter
      A          G
When you feel embarrassed
     D              G
Then I'll be your pride
      A          G
When you need directions
     D            G
Then I'll be the guide
   F#/A# Bm D G
For all time
   F#/A# Bm D G
For all time
