Lyrics

A Af ter twelve; but not so well.

Won’t pre tend it’s too soon to (Dm7)tell lence what’s ’round this bend.

A No dis grace; a bout face, an y thing ber not to have to (Dm7)chase you down a gain.

You know, (Bbmaj7)noth ing hurts like (Am7)los ing when you (Dm7)know it’s al real ly (Am)gone, ex cept (Bb)for the pain of (Am)choos ing to hold too long.

I tried it (F)your way,

but I got (C)noth ing to show.

It’s been the (Gm7)same same,

and the (F)sto ry’s get ting old.

So I guess the (F)drive way

will be the (C)end of the road.

For us it’s (Gm7)too late;

let the (F)cred its start to (C)roll.

A lot to say, but not to day.

Let the ra di o break the (Dm7)si lence what’s as we drive.

A kiss good bye?

Not this time.

Don’t re mem ber what a bout this (Dm7)song I ev er liked.

You know, (Bbmaj7)noth ing hurts like (Am7)los ing when you (Dm7)know I’m al read y (Am)gone, ex cept (Bb)for the pain of (Am)choos ing to hold too long.

I tried it (F)your way,

but I got (C)noth ing to show.

It’s been the (Gm7)same same,

and the (F)sto ry’s get ting old.

So I guess the (F)drive way

will be the (C)end of the road.

For us it’s (Gm7)too late;

let the (F)cred its start to (C)roll.

I thought may be we were (Am)get ting some where, but we’re still (Am)no where at all.

I watch your (Am)tail lights fad ing; I try, but a tear won’t fall.

I re mem ber what it (Am)feels like to know (Dm)love and have it (Am)tak en a way.

Can’t think of what I (Am)learned right now, but I’ll be (C5)thank ing you some (C7)day, yeah.

I tried it
