G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
G+G
Calm
E minorEm
The key is to be calm
C majorC
I'm sure that my hands
will settle soon
Just keep them
D MajorD
locked at ten and two
G+G
and carry on
E minorEm
I need to carry on...
C majorC
'cause taking that final look behind me
D MajorD
changes nothing but my mind
C majorC
If I stop now
E minorEm
and turn the other way
D MajorD
I'm only going back for yester-
D MajorD C majorC
Only going back for yesterday
G+G
And it's okay
E minorEm
We're better off apart but that's
the part of me
D MajorD C majorC
that voices things I never meant to say
G+G
We're like two cars in the night
E minorEm
Your headlights blind me briefly
A augmentedA
then you're gone
C majorC G+G
and we continue on our way
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
G+G
Well
E minorEm
I'm not feeling too well
C majorC
I tried every trick to understand
D MajorD
If I seem lost it's 'cause I am and I need
G+G
Help
E minorEm
I need a little help
C majorC
I've crossed your path so many times
D MajorD
but right now yours just isn't mine
C majorC E minorEm
The road is clear, a sign as if to say:
D MajorD
It's time you let the past be yester-
D MajorD C majorC
Time you let the past be yesterday
G+G
And it's okay
E minorEm
We're better off apart but that's
the part of me
D MajorD C majorC
that voices things I never meant to say
G+G
We're like two cars in the night
E minorEm
Your headlights blind me briefly
A augmentedA C majorC G+G
then you're gone and we continue on our way
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
E minorEm G+G C majorC D MajorD
C majorC E minorEm
And when I think it's far enough away
D MajorD
You make me feel like it was yester-
D MajorD C majorC
Make me feel like it was yesterday
G+G
And it's okay
E minorEm
We're better off apart but that's
the part of me
D MajorD C majorC
that voices things I never meant to say
G+G
We're like two cars in the night
E minorEm
Your headlights blind me briefly
D MajorD BB C majorC
then you're gone and we continue on our way
G+G
And my exit's on the right
E minorEm
The mile markers counting down
D MajorD
the empty minutes of the night
C majorC
and I drive on...
G+G
Letting limits pass me by
E minorEm
As I search my rearview mirror
D MajorD
Not for the dawn
C majorC C minorCm G+G
but for the incoming headlights
