D
If love is like a roller coaster
G
Pretty as a circus poster
          Bm                    G
Would you pay for a day at the fair
D
I'd like to sit in the very last car
G
Baby, don't hold onto the bar
     Bm                         G
Just throw up your hands in the air
Em                 G
Life can be such a scream if you let it
D              D/F#          G
And we're just along for the ride
         A             Bm
For the thrill of the flight
         D     Dsus D     G
Let your heart be   your guide
      A             D      G    Bm    Asus
We're along for the ride
D
We can keep the wheels in motion
G
Me, I'm not sitting by the ocean
Bm                        G
Waiting for ships to come in
D
I wanna buy you an old ragtop
G
I want to drive in between the rain drops
Bm                        G
Baby, that's where we fit in
Em                       G
Heaven and the road only know where we're going
D              D/F#          G
And we're just along for the ride
        A             Bm
For the thrill of the flight
         D     Dsus  D    G
Let your heart be    your guide
      A             D
We're along for the ride

Yeah, for the ride
