Verse 
Ab   Eb/G  Fdim        Cm/Eb 
  I agree,   we should leave, 
Eb/Bb        Ab    Eb/Bb             Ab 
  Here in an hour,   or better right now, 
F          Bb     G           Ab 
  Or we'll never,   lift this anchor. 

Ab         Eb/G  Fdim        Cm/Eb 
  Touch my skin,   and let us begin, 
Eb/Bb            Ab    Eb/Bb          Ab 
  To notice each other   and not some monitor, 
F                    Bb      G              Ab 
  And let's not tell anyone,   about what's going on.

Ab        Eb/G  Fdim               Cm/Eb 
  Say you will,   and I'll drive until, 
Eb/Bb        Ab        Eb/Bb            Ab 
  We hit the mountains,   or maybe just hills, 
F            Bb       G               Ab 
  Or we lose signal,   or just have a little. 

Ab         Eb     Ab          Eb 
  I know a motel,   along the Coastal, 
F             Bb     G                   Ab 
  It's pretty awful,   but they'll leave us alone.

Ab           Eb/G  Fdim             Cm/Eb 
  I can't go on,    pretending this song, 
Eb/Bb            Ab     Eb/Bb      Ab 
  Is about young lovers,   born to run, 
F              Bb       G      Ab 
  When it's so clearly   about you and me. 

Ab      Eb/G  Fdim            Cm/Eb 
  And I agree,   we'll get no sleep, 
Eb/Bb      Ab       Eb/Bb         Ab 
  Until we strap her,   into that seat, 
F               Bb              G           Ab 
  And stop this terrible sound   by driving her around, 

Ab                  Eb     Ab          Eb 
  'Til we pass that motel,   along the Coastal, 
Ab            Eb     F                   Bb 
  It's pretty awful,   but one time we just might, 
G                Ab 
  Stay there and sleep through the night.
