Capo 1st Fret 
 
Intro:  C  F  Am  G 
 

Verse I: 
C                                              G 
"Just take off your clothes and I'll drive you home,"  I said 
F                                 C 
Knowing she never could pass on a dare. 
F                                          C 
And knowing it sounded more desperate than reckless or bold 
              G                               F 
I just put it out there cold, too far gone to care. 
 
Verse II: 
C                                     G 
My eyes on the road, she slid herself down in the seat 
F                                   C 
And a vision of paradise swung into view. 
F                                              C 
Across those five lanes not one driver glanced over to see 
                 G                            F 
The beauty known only to me, and a big rig or two. 
 
Chorus: 
        C   G       F 
On that freeway the light was receding 
    C   G     F 
Her beauty, a sight so misleading 
  C         G        F                       G 
I failed to hear the heart that was beating alone 
                  C     F  Am  G 
On the naked ride home. 
 
Verse III: 
C                                          G 
With the trace of a smile and that defiant look in her eye 
F                                           C 
She hurtled through space in a world of her own. 
F                                    C 
And turning aside my caress spoke of all that she'd not yet done 
                G                                  F 
As if I was the doubting one, who would have to be shown. 
 
(c:Chorus) 
 
Break Chords:  
C  G  F  C  F  C  G  F 
 

Verse IV: 
C                                            G 
She gathered her clothes and ran through the yard in the dark 
F                                      C 
Up onto the porch like a flash, then inside. 
F                                       C 
Then one room at a time I watched every light in our house come on 
                           G                               F 
Like the truth that would eventually dawn, forcing me to decide. 
 
(c:Chorus) 
 

C  F  Am  G
......on out.
