Verse 1: 

D             Cmaj7 
I study up my hollow 
                  D 
Piece of wood to follow 
                  Cmaj7 
A day that doesn't come 
             D 
To the lucky 

                      Cmaj7 
And I realize there's tomorrow 
                   D 
But I would rather wallow 
                           Cmaj7 
In the rain then moods that seem 
             D    Cmaj7    
So pot-lucky 

D                   
Well I'm cruising El Paseo 
      D                     G          G               
In my off-white coup back '65 
D 
Or I'm cruisin down my own street 
D               
And my hooptie says to me 
G 
You better hang on to your bench seat 
G 
I'm gonna take you for a ride 


[Refrão]

D 
And I'll let you know 
          Em7            D/F# 
When it comes, when it comes 
              G 
I'll let you know 
               D 
But don't stay up for me 
            A9 
Don't wait up for me 
            G      Gm 
If I'm not home 


Verse 2: 

D                     Cmaj7 
So I wait for fate to find me 
                   D 
A ball of string unwind me 
                   Cmaj7         D 
Uncomfortable as a centerfold 


                   Cmaj7 
And I realize your behind me 
               D 
To help and humankind me 
                    Cmaj7 
To see my songs can be retold 

     D 
Well I'll be gone tomorrow 
   D 
Yes I'm on the road tomorrow 
    G 
So next time that I see you in school 
  G 
It won't be for too long

And I'll let you know 
          Em7            D/F# 
When it comes, when it comes 
              G 
I'll let you know 
               D 
But don't stay up for me 
            A9 
Don't wait up for me 
            G      Gm 
If I'm not home

D  
And I want a leather jacket 
D                           G    G 
But only if I have the time 
D  
Well, I'll comb my hair like Elvis 
D  
And grab an old Gretch 59 
G 
And you'd hardly recognize me if you 
G 
Saw me from behind
