And I wasn't ready to go
Fmaj7 C/E G
I'm never ready to go

27 years of nothing but failures

and promises that I couldn't keep, Oh Lord
Fmaj7 C/E G
and I wasn't ready to go
Fmaj7 C/E G
I'm never ready to go

Let it ride

Let it ride
Fmaj7 C/E G
Let it take away all of the darkness

Let it ride
Fmaj7 C/E G C/E
Let it rock me in the arms of strangers angels

Until it brings me home

Dancing in the endless moonlight

In a parking lot in the headlights of cars

Some place on the moon

Where they moved the drive-in theatre

Where I left the car that I can't find

but I still got the keys to
