VERSE :
D Daug/G
I look at her and have to smile
Bm7 G
As we go drivin' for a while,
A7sus A9 A7
Her hair blowing in the open window of my car, and
D Daug/G
As we go, the traffic lights,
Bm7 G
I watch them glimmer in her eyes
A7sus A9 A7
In the darkness of the evening.
CHORUS 1 :
D Daug/G
And I've got all that I need
Bm7 G A7sus A9
Right here in my passenger seat.

Oh, and I can't keep my eyes on the____ road
G A7sus A9 A7
Knowing that she's inches from me.
VERSE :
D Daug/G
We stop to get something to drink,
Bm7 G
My mind clouds and I can't think,
A7sus A9 A7
Scared to death to say I love her.
D Daug/G
Then the moon peeks from the clouds,
Bm7 G
I hear my heart, it beats so loud,
A7sus A9 A7
I try to tell her simply.
