 E MajorE
I can't stop thinkin’ of you
A augmentedA                    E MajorE
All these nights I've been crying on my pillow

Got the windows rolled down, the pedal to the metal

I walked on the wild side
A augmentedA               E MajorE

Pulled me in without me even knowing

Somewhere deep inside

I still knew wrong from right

Running on empty

Blind but then I saw the light
