Lyrics and Chords


[ C(9) = x32033 ]

Now the parking lot is empty
Everyone's gone someplace
I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed
A cooler and a two-day suitcase

/ C(9) - Fmaj7 C(9) / - - Dm7 - / 1st / Bb - Dm7 G /

'Cause there's a place we like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city limit
We're singing and your hands upon my knee

{Refrain}
So we're ok, we're fine, baby I'm here to stop the crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
Stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take 'em apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

/ C - Gm7 - Fmaj7 - G - / C - Gm7 - / Fmaj7 - G - /
   / Am7 - F - / C C(9) Am7 - / Dm7 Em7 F - / 
   / G - C(9) - Fmaj7 C(9) - - Dm7 - /

You know the things that I am afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell 
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well

I've seen the shadows of so many people
Still trying on the treasures of youth
A road that fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off, to tell you the truth

{Refrain}

All the tiny little trinkets of temptation
Something new instead of something old
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface and its 
Fools gold
Fools gold
Fools gold

/ Dm7 Em7 F - / - - G C / Dm7 Em7 F - / Em7 - Dm7 - /
   / F Em7 Dm7 - / /

Now we're talking bout a difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
But I took us for better and I took us for worse
Don't you ever forget

The steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
The closer I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free

{Refrain}
