A      C
Tell me when tomorrow comes
A           C
I'll be the first to ride
F         C
Start the car and honk the horn
 E
I'll be right outside

Verse:

A        C
Pour a drink and open wide
A         C
I have things to tell
F        C
I have seen the brighter side
    E
Of the roads that lead to hell

Chorus:

F C E
mmmmmmmmm

Verse:

 A      C
Yesterday is miles away

You'll miss it if you blink
   F        C
And I've found my salvation in
   E
The places where you drink

Verse:

 A         C
You can say you're on my side
   A       C
And I know that's a lie
    F           C
'Cause given the chance you'd stab my back
   E
And leave me here to die

Chorus:

F C E
mmmmmmmm

Verse:

A           C
Just give me the keys tonight
 A        C
I'm happy when I drive
 F        C
Revenge is the perfect word
  E
For what I have in mind

Verse:

 A         C
Desert lives bring deserted lives
   A      C
I know from first hand
   F         C
We're moved around like circus clowns
   E
When laughter's in demand
