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