        Dm                          C
Come on baby, let's get out of this town

        Dm                         C
I got a full tank of gas, with the top rolled down

        F                                   Am        F
There's a chill in my bones, I don't want to be left alone

   Dm            F            C
So baby, you can sleep while drive.

I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar In my pocket I'll carry my harp I got some money I saved, enough to get underway And baby, you can sleep while I drive. We'll go through Tucson up to Santa Fe And Barbara in Nashville says we're welcome to stay I'll buy you boots down in Texas, a hat from New Orleans And in the morning you can tell me your dreams.

               F
You know I've seen it before

                F          C
This mist that covers your eyes

             F                           F            C
You've been looking for something that's not in your life

    F                              Am           F
My intentions are true, won't you take me with you

     Dm             F           C
And baby, you can sleep while I drive.

Am  F   C
Oh, oh, oh is it other arms you want to

Am   F   C
h--o--ld   you, the stranger,

     F
the lover, you're free

           Am           F  (pause)
Can't you get that with me?

Come on baby, let's get out of this town I've got a full tank of gas, with the top rolled down If you won't take me with you, I'll go before night is through And baby, you can sleep while I drive. -Bruce Winges ([email protected])
