Jackson Browne – Minutes To Downtown (Guitar)

Bm                                                A
No, I wasn't looking for a door into the morning again

Bm                                                  A
No, I wasn't thinking you would ever be more than a friend

    G                    Cadd9           Bm                F#m
The years I've seen that fell between my date of birth and yours

Em7             Cadd9              D              A
Fade before the altered shore of a river changing course

Bm                                                  A
No, I didn't think that I would ever feel this way again

Bm                                                   A
No, not with a story this long and this close to the end

    G               Cadd9      Bm                    F#m
And though I try to fathom why home feels strange to me

Em7               Cadd9          D              A
More and more the other shore is what I need to see

Cadd9         D    Cadd9          D
Minutes slip away, minutes become days

Cadd9      F#m                      Em7   A
Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway

  Gmaj7         F#7     Dsus2          E7
Forever on this freeway dreaming of my getaway

Em7                 A        Cadd9  D  Cadd9  D
Don't know how I'm still in LA

Bm                                                          A
Now, there may be nothing left for us but what pleasure can teach

Bm                                                A
Now, deep in the moment with the future so out of reach

  G                  Cadd9         Bm                F#m
I see that smile and even while it breaks my heart I laugh

Em7            Cadd9            D             A
That's because this heart was already torn in half

Cadd9         D    Cadd9          D
Minutes slip away, minutes become days

Cadd9      F#m                      Em7   A
Minutes to downtown, minutes to the Coast Highway

    Gmaj7           F#7       Dsus2            E7
And I'm out on this freeway, still plotting my getaway

Em7                 A        Cadd9  D  Cadd9  D
Don't know how I'm still in LA
