    Verse 1
    Driving 

    through 
    the 
    long 
    night 

    Trying 
    to 
    figure 
    who's 
    right 

    and 
    who's 
    wrong 

    Now 
    the kid 
    has 
    gone. 

    I 
    sit 
    belted 
    up 
    tight, 

    She 
    sucks 
    on 
    a match 
    light, 

    glowing 
    bronze, 
    steering 
    on. 

    And 
    I 
    might 
    be 
    more 
    a 
    man 
    if 
    I 

    stopped 
    this 
    in 
    its 
    tracks 

    And said 
    come 
    on, 

    let's 
    go 
    home. 
    But she's 
    got 
    the 
    wheel, 

    And 
    I've 
    got 
    nothing 
    except 

    what 
    I 
    have 
    on. 

    Verse 2

    When 
    you're 
    driving 
    with 

    the 
    brakes 
    on, 

    When 
    you're swimming 
    with 

    your boot
    s 
    on, 

    It's 
    hard 
    to say 
    you 
    love 

    someone 

    And it's 
    hard 
    to say 
    you 
    don't. 

    Verse 3

    Try
    ing 
    to keep 
    the mood 
    right, 

    trying 
    to steer 
    the 
    conversation 
    from 

    The thing 
    we've 
    done. 

    She 
    shuts 
    up 
    the 
    ashtray 
    and 
    I 
    say 
    it's 

    a long 
    way 
    back 
    now 
    hon 

    And she 
    just 
    yawn
    s. 
    And 
    we 

    might 
    get 
    lost 
    someplace 

    So 
    desolate 
    that 
    no 
    one 
    where 
    we're 

    from 
    would 
    ever 
    come 

    But she's 
    got 
    the 
    wheel 
    and 
    I've 
    got 
    to deal 
    from 
    now 


    on. 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    But 
    unless 
    the moon 
    fall
    s tonight, 

    unless 
    continents 
    col
    lide, 

    Nothing's 
    gonna 
    make 
    me 
    break 
    from 
    her 
    side.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
