G
Driving, driving.  Don't you ever sleep
                                 C        G
Calling out the exits signs like promises to keep

Shooting star racing through the night
                            C         G

♫ Verse 3:

Pretend that you don't care

G
Driving, driving Don't you ever sleep
                                   C            G
Lay down by the railroad tires with promises to keep
C                G

 Lots of fingerstyle embellishments, here are a few I've worked out
