C 
Yes, I was drunk 
Am 
You'd be the same 
G 
The windows were bending 
F 
and decorated with rain 

C 
I couldn't speak 
Am 
'cos my thinking was stunned 
G 
I picked up the keys 
F 
you forced me to run 

C 
Nothing could stop me leaving 
Am 
The impulse runs through my blood 
G 
And I hope you live for your freedom 
F 
I hope you enjoy the lust 

C 
And I got in the car 
Am 
And put her in to first 

C 
Not stopping for lights 
Am 
'cos my vision was blurred 
G 
One hand on the wheel 
F 
the other open and cut 

C 
You know I still have to tow 
Am 
You know I wanted to stay 
G 
The car in front 
F 
Kept tapping on-off the breaks 

C 
Nothing could stop me leaving 
Am 
The impulse runs through my blood 
G 
I hope you live for your freedom 
F 
I hope you enjoy the lust 

C 
So I let go 
Am 
So I let go 
G 
Ignoring the lights 
F 
That mark out the road 

C 
And I wanted to meet the one 
Am 
The one with the healthy glow 
G 
So I let go 
F 
You made me let go 

               C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
E              Em7 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 

C 
Nothing could stop me speeding 
Am 
Or missing that bend in the road 
G 
A 90 head-on collision 
F 
Is how I lost control 

C 
So I let go 
Am 
So I let go 
G 
Ignoring the lights 
F 
That mark out the road 

C 
Wanted to meet the one 
Am 
The one with the healthy glow 
G 
So I let go 
F 
You made me let go 

               C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
Am             C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
E              Em7 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush 
E              Em7                          C 
I think I just needed a rush, needed a rush
