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

Em                           G          C
Turned up the volume and you started to weep
                     G
And I thought you a lamb

D                       G         C
Even in the sigh of the headlight sea
     Am               D7
Your tears were salty ocean
    Em                       G               C
You opened up the engine and listened to it sing
                   G
And I called you a lamb

Break:
G - Bm Em - Em D - C Bm - Am - Am/G - F#half dim.

G                       Bm            Em           D           C              Bm          Am
You knew your daddy til you were thirteen And then he took his leave for the likes of the land
            Am/G      F#half dim
And the far off salty ocean
Em                         G          C
We shook our bodies and we started to scream
                 G
And I asked you again

D                             G       C
Tell me when we grow up do we ever go home?
         Am               D7
You said home becomes the highway


Em                     Bm     Em          D          C           Bm          Am
We ordered movies on a motel screen until you needed me warm inside of your mouth
        Am/G          F#half dim
And my skin was salty ocean
        Em                     G        C
And then you recommended I'm a woman to keep
                   G
