♫ Intro:

Aadd9 C#m7 Aadd9 B



♫ Verse:
Aadd9
Waiting tables at your restaurant job
C#m7
An old man reads the paper in the booth where I stop
Aadd9
To say hello when I'm in town
                        B
Ask a friend if you're around
         Aadd9
And I'm thinkin' about those summer nights

We never slept we didn't mind
    C#m7
And I felt so alive and happy
     Aadd9
Just sitting on the porch

Aadd9nd swingin' back and forth
     B
Now everything seems so distant
                  Aadd9       B
But I promise I'm not too far
                          Aadd9         B
When you're alone in your brand new car
             Aadd9         B
Driving your new black car
         C#m7
Into the rain


♫ Chorus:
                         F#m   G#m Aadd9
Are you listening to the radio?
                       E          B
Are you driving down a city road?
                      Aadd9         E
Are you alone in your new black car?
              B
I imagine you there


♫ Verse:
         Aadd9
And I'm sitting by the window here

The morning birds will reappear
    C#m7
And I feel empty
         Aadd9
And our songs are on the radio

You call me up but I have to go
         B
And I'm sorry angel, I'm sorry
                        Aadd9       B
But I'll call you right back, I swear
                  Aadd9        B
You'll think I've left you there
              Aadd9     B
Alone with an empty chair
                   C#m7
But I whisper your name


♫ Chorus:

Are you listening to the radio?

Are you driving down a city road?
                      Aadd9         E
Are you alone in your new black car?
              B
I imagine you there
                         F#m  G#m Aadd9
Are you listening to the radio?
                       E          B
Are you driving down a city road?
                   Aadd9         E
Back alone in your new black car?
                 B
The wind in your hair

♫ Interlude:
Aadd9 C#m7

♫ Bridge:
        Aadd9
Are you tired of watching the rain hit the glass?

All alone but aware of the places we've passed
   C#m7
Together we were singing along to the songs

Are you now, are you now?
     Aadd9
I'm thinking of you in your college town

Are you thinking of me as you're driving around?
         B
Are you listening to me, are you listening?

Are you alone in your new black car?
              B
I imagine you there
                         F#m  G#m Aadd9
Are you listening to the radio?
                       E             B
Are you driving down a winding road?
                   Aadd9         E
Back alone in your new black car?
                 B
The wind in your hair


Coda:
              Aadd9         E
Alone in your new black car
              B C#m7
I imagine you there
             Aadd9         E
Driving your new black car
                 B  C#m7
The wind in your hair
