Intro: Bm  G 
 
      Bm                                                              
Been down this street so many times, could hit the gas and close my eyes 
G 
And not touch a thing 
    Bm 
The doorways here are always dark, keep movin' it's not safe to park 
G 
'Cause this ain't no lover's lane 
      Bm 
It's where infatuation goes, you hit this long strange stretch of road 
G 
And you don't know where it leads 
    Em 
But if we're goin' anywhere only this'll take us there 
G                             A 
So baby hold your breath and wrap your arms around me, yeah 
 

D               A  
Here we go now, a little closer 
Em                  G 
Keep your head down on my shoulder 
D                          A 
We're on our way but it's gonna get rough 
Em                 G               Bm    G 
On this road, the road to lasting love 
 
 
Bm  
Look into the rear view mirror, remember all that got us here 
G 
We're gonna need it later 
Bm 
Out the window, all around, dreams in pieces on the ground 
G 
'Cause it won't be easy baby 
Bm 
You know if faith and hope and trust ain't ridin' in these hearts with us 
G 
This trip's gonna break on me 
        Em 
Oh I've never seen the other side but girl when you look in my eyes 
G                             A 
I've seen it out there, I believe that we can make it baby 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
           G                     Bm 
There's a light up ahead that we all wanna reach 
      F#7                        G 
So we grab every chance that we can 
        Em                      D 
But we lose and get lost just a few get across 
      C 
This broken promise land 
 
 
CHORUS (twice) 
 
 
Outro: Bm   G  (a few times to fade)
