You Can Sleep While I Drive

Come on, (Dm)baby, let's get out of this (C)town.

I got a (Dm)full tank of gas with the (C)top rolled down.

There's a (Bb)chill in my bones,

I don't want to (Am)be left (F)alone,

so, baby, you can sleep while I drive.

I'll pack my (Dm)bag and load up my guitar.

In my pocket I'll carry my harp.

I got some (Bb)money I've saved,

enough to (Am)get (F)underway, and, (Bb)baby,

you can (F)sleep while I drive.

We'll go through (Dm)Tucson, up to Santa Fe,

(C)and (Dm)Barb'ra in Nashville says we're (C)welcome to stay.

I'll buy you (Bb)glasses in Texas,

a hat (Am)from New (F)Orleans, and in the (Bb)morning you can (F)tell me your dreams.

You know I've (G7)seen it before,

this mist that (F)covers your (C)eyes.

You've been (G7)looking for something that's (F)not in your (C)life.

My (Bb)intentions are true, won't you (Am)take me with (F)you?

And, (Bb)baby, you can (F)sleep while I drive.

(Am)Oh, (G)is it other arms you want to (Am)hold

(C)you? The stranger, the (Bb)lover, you're free.

Can't you (Am)get that with (F)me?

Come on, (Dm)baby, let's get out of this (C)town.

I got a (Dm)full tank of gas,

with the (C)top rolled down.

If you won't (Bb)take me with you,

I'll go (Am)before night is (F)through,

and, (Bb)baby, you can (F)sleep while I drive.
