Intro: A  D   E   (2x) 

A 
Not coming back but I can't stop waiting 
Give me a minute while my heart stops breaking 
D 
Give me a minute while I fix my tie 
E 
Give me a minute while I take my life 

A 
Back into my own hands, 
There's a Chevy Thunder on the drive tonight 
D 
I'll take your father's car, 
    E 
And I'm not coming back alive 


    D 
You know you could've been here, honey 
F#m 
Sitting by my right-hand side, tonight 
E 
I'll take your father's car, and 
C# 
Drive, drive, drive! 


        D 
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go) 
A 
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know) 
E                                               N.C. 
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes 
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder! 

 A   D   E   

A 
Once in a while not twice in a while 
When heaven brakes, I see you smile 
D 
I know it hurts, I know it hurts, 
E 
I know, (woah ohh woah-oh) 

A 
I'm not what you want 
You fell in love with an idea 
D 
And I was never never never never never enough 
E 
Tonight I'm riding out of here

             D               A 
There's only so many ways to wake up, 
F#m                 E 
To wake up, next to you 
    D            A 
But every single time feels like 
    F#m        E 
I'm waking up anew 
             D                        A 
Just give me one little piece of your heart 
      F#m             E 
And I swear I will be true 
             D                        A 
Just give me one little piece of your heart 
         F#m             E         A 
And I'll break my own in two, for you
