Long Drives chords by Molly And The Zombies

Em
Listen to me
         G
I know I never got much relief
  Em
I limped when I walked, S-s-stuttered to talk
        G
and the achin' was just part of me
                Em
listen to me
        G
I know all about agony
         Em
when you say that it hurts more than anybody sees
       G
with a heart colder than
    D
the heart off-beat

           Em                C
'cause you married a man who lied to you love
       G                        D
But it wasn't like that when he first picked you up.
        Em                      C
When he drove you around and he bought you some flowers
      G                             D
Until something had changed and the temperature soured

    Em    C
But I'm alright
     G       D
Baby I don't mind
         Em      C
I'll get on just fine
        G         D         D
On them long long drives
                Em
Call it a lie


Em              G
       Well whatever brings you back to life
         Em
We could turn it around we can drive it straight home
       G
If you wanna be alone for the night
                  Em
Whatever song you like
         G
From The Souls to Mack the Knife
         Em
we could turn it up loud, we can put the pedal down
         G                  D
With the rain beading up my love

           Em                      C
'Cause you ache for a drug that'll never be enough
       G                             D
You're never gonna feel like when he first picked you up
        Em                           C
when he drove you around, bought you powder and flowers
G                    D
until the thrill was gone


             Em    C
but you said I'm alright
     G       D
baby I don't mind
         Em      C
I'll get on just fine
        G         D           D
on them long long drives


Em           C     G              D
    last night I remembered being 17
Em                  C                       G                    D
I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and rites of spring


Em                        C
spent every night with cassettes that she liked
     G                     D
in a car that I borrowed a lot
            Em                 C           G       D       D
and I could never get her to believe


          Em                     C
'Cause we tasted a kiss that was sent from below
       G                       D
it was cool in the night I was old as a stone
       Em                        C
in the back of the car with a child at heart
     G                        D
who suddenly showed you their teeth


             Em    C
but you said I'm alright
       G       D
Jamie, I don't mind
         Em      C
I'll get on just fine
        G         D          Em          C     G    D
On them long long drives without you
           Em           C       G       D
drives without you


            Em                       C
And I still see him sometimes and he doesn't look right
    G                          D
you left me for him then you left him for spite
  Em                      C              G
I hope you never pay that price
    D              G
