Verse 1:

G# minorG#m              A augmentedA
     She loves to drive east in the evening,

   H             A augmentedA
when the sun is all golden and low.

G# minorG#m      A augmentedA
     When nobody knows she's arriving,

      H         A augmentedA
and there's nobody waiting at home.

  C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
She told that she still has a lover,

     E MajorE          H
but he's away for a year at a time.

  F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
And if I wanted to I could go see her,

     E MajorE           H
but she told me she'd never be mine

Verse 2:

G# minorG#m              A augmentedA
    She said that she loves to go dancing,

     H         A augmentedA
but she'd rather go dancing alone.

G# minorG#m             A augmentedA
    She said that there's no point in dancing,

     H         A augmentedA
with someone that you already know.

F# minorF#m           A augmentedA
Then she asked me if she met a stranger,

    E MajorE           H
would I share her for only an hour.

F# minorF#m           A augmentedA
She said don't worry boy there's no danger,

    E MajorE           H
I get amnesia straight after a shower.

Chorus:

C# minorC#m         E MajorE
And I know that you do what you say

  C# minorC#m            E MajorE
And what you want while you're away

             C# minorC#m       E MajorE
I just wish you wouldn't look at me that way

  D MajorD    D MajorD   C# minorC#m   C#m7C#m7
For so long,    so long

   She said....


Verse 3:

G# minorG#m           A augmentedA
don't wait for me in the darkness,

   H            A augmentedA
I can find my way home if it's clear.

  G# minorG#m     A augmentedA
By observing the stars and their movements,

    H            A augmentedA
and by holding a shell to my ear

F# minorF#m                   A augmentedA
She said boy you'd better find yourself somewhere new to go,

 E MajorE           BB
after your days work is done

    F# minorF#m           A augmentedA
Because me I love to drive east in the evening

    E MajorE             H
I can'??t wait for the night time to come

F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
I love to drive east in the evening

           E MajorE      H
you know it makes me feel so alive

   F# minorF#m         A augmentedA
I can't wait for his sweet return

  E MajorE           H
and for the night time to arrive
