Em
Listen to me
G
I know I never got much relief
Em
I limped when I walked, S-s-stuttered to talk
G
and the achin' was just part of me
Em
listen to me
G
I know all about agony
Em
when you say that it hurts more than anybody sees
G
with a heart colder than
D
the heart off-beat
Em C
'cause you married a man who lied to you love
G D
But it wasn't like that when he first picked you up.
Em C
When he drove you around and he bought you some flowers
G D
Until something had changed and the temperature soured
Em C
But I'm alright
G D
Baby I don't mind
Em C
I'll get on just fine
G D D
On them long long drives
Em
Call it a lie
Em G
Well whatever brings you back to life
Em
We could turn it around we can drive it straight home
G
If you wanna be alone for the night
Em
Whatever song you like
G
From The Souls to Mack the Knife
Em
we could turn it up loud, we can put the pedal down
G D
With the rain beading up my love
Em C
'Cause you ache for a drug that'll never be enough
G D
You're never gonna feel like when he first picked you up
Em C
when he drove you around, bought you powder and flowers
G D
until the thrill was gone
Em C
but you said I'm alright
G D
baby I don't mind
Em C
I'll get on just fine
G D D
on them long long drives
Em C G D
last night I remembered being 17
Em C G D
I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and rites of spring
Em C
spent every night with cassettes that she liked
G D
in a car that I borrowed a lot
Em C G D D
and I could never get her to believe
Em C
'Cause we tasted a kiss that was sent from below
G D
it was cool in the night I was old as a stone
Em C
in the back of the car with a child at heart
G D
who suddenly showed you their teeth
Em C
but you said I'm alright
G D
Jamie, I don't mind
Em C
I'll get on just fine
G D Em C G D
On them long long drives without you
Em C G D
drives without you
Em C
And I still see him sometimes and he doesn't look right
G D
you left me for him then you left him for spite
Em C G
I hope you never pay that price
D G
Wherever you are tonight
