verse 1 
C                F                 C 
They didn't ever say where we were going 
         F                G 
We just climbed into the backseat 
G                     Am7 
Eyes wide open to the picture show outside 
Am7                            F 
I guess we really didn't understand it all 

C                F                  C 
Remember looking up at them in the furrow 
       F                  G 
Hands touched together, almost outta sight 
G                                       Am7 
It's been a long, hard week but now the slow release 
                  F 
Of a Sunday afternoon 

G                                    Am              F 
And we were only young but they were trying hard to reach us 
G                                 Am                F 
How was I to know that there was something so worth keeping? 


Chorus 
F 
'Cause we were 
C 
Watching the world through an open window 
Dm7 
Trees lined up like dominoes 
C 
This old car could find its own way home 

          F 
It's the ordinary things that mean so much 
G                         Am 
That's where I learned it all, from them 
    F                  C 
To fight, to love, to laugh again 
G                      Am            F 
Man, I thought we were only wasting time 

F                C   F C F 
Out on a Sunday drive 


verse 2 
C                   F                 C 
The song warms your soul just like an old friend 
                         G 
Singing songs along that river, never old 
                                           Am 
And everyone you love is sitting there, so close 
       Am7                            F 
You're never thinking that you'd ever get old 
F 
No, you'll never get old 


Chorus 
      C 
Just watching the world through an open window 
Em 
Trees lined up like dominoes 
C 
This old car could find its own way home 
         F 
It's the ordinary things that mean so much 

G                         Am 
That's where I learned it all, from them 
    F                  C 
To fight, to love, to laugh again 
G                      Am            F 
Man, I thought we were only wasting time 
F                C     F  G  Am C F G 
Out on a Sunday drive, oh 


verse 3 
   C               F          C 
I never said where we were going 
                          G 
I just helped them to the back seat 
G 
Dad, just laughed and said 
            Am 
"Son, don't drive too far" 

Am                                 F 
Your momma gets pretty tired these days 
C           F                   C                  F 
After a few miles I guess they recognized some places 
       G 
And I listened as they reminisced 
G                                  Am 
About a world that they had always known 

Am 
And how it's changing 
                            F 
Probably never gonna be the same again 
G                                     Am                 F 
I caught 'em in the mirror, they were holding hands and smiling 
G                           Am       F 
Looking younger than they'd been in years 

F 
Oh, through all the years 


Chorus 
F 
And they were 
C 
Watching the world through an open window 
Em 
Trees lined up like dominoes 
C 
This old car could find its own way home 

          F 
It's the ordinary things that mean so much 
G                         Am 
That's where I learned it all, from them 
   F                  C 
To fight, to love, to laugh again 
G                      Am           F 
Man, I thought we were only wasting time 

F                C 
Out on a Sunday drive 


Outro 
Em               C 
Out on a Sunday drive 
G                C 
Out on a Sunday drive 
Em               C    F 
Out on a Sunday drive
