Intro: (C/D D C/D D) 
 
          D7 
I've been out on this highway of heartache 
 
F              G                   D7 
Hopin' that somewhere down the line 
        G                          D7           G 
I could find somebody who could rev me like you do 
   F                 G            D7 
so grab on to my wheel and I'll be fine 
 
                 G7                            D7 
Chorus: Take the keys to my heart and drive me crazy 
                  F          G7                   A7 
 I've been running on empty way too long 
                D7                   G7 
 Honey you got the touch that heats my motor up 
                 D7         G          F       D7      (n.c) 
 Take the keys to my heart and drive it home fill it up

Verse2 (same progression as 1st) 
I don't know where this road is gonna led us 
But what a beautiful night for a drive 
Baby, put your mind at ease 
drop the top and feel the breeze 
just follow all the signs to paridise. 
 
 
Bridge: 
      G7                                D7 
Tonight we're gonna set these wheels on fire  
         E7                          A7 
and find out how far this thing will go 
       D7                                     G7           
Honey we don't need no map cause' where we are is where it's at 
         D7              G7        F            D7 
Drop the keys to my heart and I'll drive you home. 
 
Baby make my motor yearn 
          G7 
I long to feel that rubber burn 
         D7         G         F 
take the keys to my heart and drive it home 
 
C/D D 
 
        C/D  D7 
Drive it home 
 
 
 
The albume is Sevens, so is this song.  Nothing but 7th chords (almost)!
