By request, You Can Sleep While I Drive...third in a series.
BTW, does anyone have the tab for Love & Rockets' Saudade, from the
album Seventh Dream Of Teenage Heaven? I didn't notice a L&R
directory at nevada, although I could have overlooked it..
Please post or mail it if you do, anyway...this song is a longtime
favourite...

Come on baby, let's get out of this town
(2 fr.)
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
There's a chill in my bones, I don't want to be left alone
C (2 fr.)
so baby you can sleep while I drive
(2 fr.)
I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar
(2 fr.)
In my pocket I'll carry my harp
I got some money I've saved enough to get underway
(2 fr.)
and baby you can sleep while I drive
(2 fr.)
We'll go through Tucson up to Santa Fe
(2 fr.)
and Barb'ra in Nashville says we're welcome to stay
I'll buy you glasses in Texas, a hat from New Orleans
(2 fr.)
and in the morning you can tell me your dreams
You know I've seen it before, this mist that covers your eyes
You've been looking for something that's not in your life
My intentions are true, won't you take me with you?
(2 fr.)
and baby you can sleep while I drive
Dsus4 Dm |C C (2 fr.) C |
Dsus4 Dm |C C (2 fr.) C |
Oh is it other arms you want to
hold you the stranger the lover you're free
Can't you get that from me?
(2 fr.)
Come on baby let's get out of this town
(2 fr.)
I've got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
If you won't take me with you, I'll go before night is through
(2 fr.)
And baby you can sleep while I drive

Back on "oh...is it other arms you want to....", that first G
might be a G7. I think the G sounds better, but be your own judges...
Any requests for my next endeavor?
