Holed up in Vegas for only one week And I caught you tongue and cheek by the side of the road
     Am/GAm/G     F#half dim
Of an automobile expo

E minorEm              G+G     C majorC
Turned up the volume and you started to weep
           G+G
And I thought you a lamb

D MajorD            G+G     C majorC
Even in the sigh of the headlight sea
   A minorAm        D7D7
Your tears were salty ocean
  E minorEm            G+G        C majorC
You opened up the engine and listened to it sing
          G+G
And I called you a lamb

Break:
G+G - B minorBm E minorEm - E minorEm D MajorD - C majorC B minorBm - A minorAm - Am/GAm/G - F#half dim.

G+G            B minorBm      E minorEm      D MajorD      C majorC       B minorBm     A minorAm
You knew your daddy til you were thirteen And then he took his leave for the likes of the land
      Am/GAm/G   F#half dim
And the far off salty ocean
E minorEm             G+G     C majorC
We shook our bodies and we started to scream
         G+G
And I asked you again

D MajorD               G+G    C majorC
Tell me when we grow up do we ever go home?
     A minorAm        D7D7
You said home becomes the highway


E minorEm           B minorBm   E minorEm     D MajorD     C majorC      B minorBm     A minorAm
We ordered movies on a motel screen until you needed me warm inside of your mouth
    Am/GAm/G     F#half dim
And my skin was salty ocean
    E minorEm           G+G    C majorC
And then you recommended I'm a woman to keep
          G+G
