On The Drive Home chords by Niki (Nicole Zefanya)

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

************************************
Some advice: During the verses, when you play G and go to C you only add your index finger to the first fret
of the B string, you don't need to play the full chord as it's only a transmission.
In the chorus and bridge you play the full C).

D chord: The way she plays D is by doing the same shape of the regular C chord
but playing it from the third fret, if you find it hard you can just play a regular D but this one sounds
better and is the original way she plays it.

Strumming: It's basically alternating strumming down the first 3 low strings with your thumb and always
plucking ONLY the B string with your middle finger.

Verse 1:
G
Dear
    C      Em
Do you hear what I hear?
    G     C      Em
The crackle, of fear in the atmosphere
 G   C   Em
Mmmmm...mmm...mmmmm

G
Love
      C      Em
Keep your eyes on the road
 G                      C     Em
‘Cause when I stare all I see is two foggy windows to a lost soul

Chorus:
   C             Em
And maybe, maybe it’s all my fault
        C
That it’s so quiet
          G
On the drive home

Verse 2:
 G      C        Em
Babe, can I build my home in your mind?
  G                C   Em
A disheveled maze constellated and intertwined

Chorus:
   C            Em
But somehow, it’s my favorite kind
         C
And my favorite view
                  G
When it untangles in the moonlight

Verse 3:

G         C   Em
Darlin’, we’re getting older
G                         C    Em
In less than 8 months you’ll wash tear stains off of your shoulder

C
And drenched in alcohol and conceit
C
The cold-blooded bodies quick on their feet
   Em
Will tell you how to earn your stripes

Chorus:
        C
And you’ll be listening while
  C
I sit here with glistening eyes
  C
As the stripes on my back chip and dry
   C               D
You won’t be listening to my cries

Anymore

G C   Em
Woooooh~ woooooh~

Bridge:
   D           C
And we’ll be two pieces of driftwood
  D                  C
Floating in a sea of missed calls and excuses
      D
And your home will change into
         C
Four walls and a mini fridge
  D            C
Instead of four limbs and lips to kiss

Chorus:
C  G  Em         D
But for now, the night is young
       D       D
And you are here and snow patrol just came on the radio
  C  G  C
So darling, let’s take
 C  G  C       D
Darling, let’s take the long way home

G   C Em
Woooh, Oooh
G   C Em
Ooooh, Oooh
G       C      Em
Love, keep your eyes on the road
