Snow fell thick and small,
             
It buried us all in a fog,
       
You remembered it all,
                       
I'm sleepdriving away,

               
Metal and mould, bourbon and clove,

Mirrors and smoke,

Yesterday's clothes,
                       
I'm sleepdriving away,

                     
As through your window I stared out,
                         
And saw someday we'll be too old,

                      
Cold winter air, put an ache in your jaw,
                        
We're only as old as you say that we are,
                        
I'm sleepdriving away,

                               
The trunk of the car filled with all that we own,
                              
This old Pontiac's starting to feel like a boat,
                        
I'm sleepdriving away,

                     
As through your window I stared out,
                         
And saw someday we'll be too old,

It's nearly dawn in a motel home,
                                 
The shades were drawn to hide the storm,
                      
Without a sound the TV glows,
                             
The blankets tight around our throats,

                           
Swirling around the lights above,
                            
Outside the crows are waking up,

                           
It's nearly dawn in a motel home,
                            
Was nearly gone, no sleep at all,

Fill:              

                     
Outside those crows in lines,
   G                     [C    F    C    G] <--Repeat until end.
On those frozen roads and wires,

Sleepdriving away.
