In the back of a car on a road in the dark 
       Dm          Bb       C            G 
In the stillicide, silently falling snow 
       Dm          Bb           C        G 
I have packed everything that I own in a bag 
        Dm           Bb         C  G 
And I'm driving, I'm driving to Idaho

And oh, I've been dumb, I've been perfectly beautiful 
Dm         Bb          C           G 
Lain on my back buying lovers with stealth 
        Dm          Bb           C        G 
But I'm sick of you all, and I'm sick of opinions

Tell me, Phaedrus, what's good, is it Ida-ho?
