Intro:
Driving through the long night
Trying to figure who's right and who's wrong
Now the kid has gone. I sit belted up tight.
She sucks on a match light, glowing bronze, steering on.
And I might be more a man if I stopped this in it's tracks
And said come on, let's go home. But she's got the wheel.
And I've got nothing except what I have on.
When you're driving with the brakes on.
When you're swimming with you're boots on.
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't.
Trying to keep the mood right,
trying to steer the conversation from
The thing we've done. She shuts up the ashtray
and I say "it's a long way back now, hun." And she just yawns.
And we might get lost someplace so desolate that
no one where we're from would ever come. But she's got the wheel.
And I've got to deal from now on.
When you're driving with the brakes on.
When you're swimming with you're boots on.
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't.Elec. Gtr./Dist. Tone
But unless the moon falls tonight,
unless continents collide.
Nothing's gonna make me
break from her side.Acoustic Gtr./Clean Tone
When you're driving with the brakes on.
When you're swimming with you're boots on.
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't.
It's hard to say you love someone
Am C <--- Strum once(End.)
And it's hard to say you don't.
