Long Drives chords by Molly And The Zombies

Em
Listen to me
     G
I know I never got much relief
 Em
I limped when I walked, S-s-stuttered to talk
    G
and the achin' was just part of me
        Em
listen to me
    G
I know all about agony
     Em
when you say that it hurts more than anybody sees
    G
with a heart colder than
  D
the heart off-beat

      Em        C
'cause you married a man who lied to you love
    G            D
But it wasn't like that when he first picked you up.
    Em           C
When he drove you around and he bought you some flowers
   G               D
Until something had changed and the temperature soured

  Em  C
But I'm alright
   G    D
Baby I don't mind
     Em   C
I'll get on just fine
    G     D     D
On them long long drives
        Em
Call it a lie


Em       G
    Well whatever brings you back to life
     Em
We could turn it around we can drive it straight home
    G
If you wanna be alone for the night
         Em
Whatever song you like
     G
From The Souls to Mack the Knife
     Em
we could turn it up loud, we can put the pedal down
     G         D
With the rain beading up my love

      Em           C
'Cause you ache for a drug that'll never be enough
    G               D
You're never gonna feel like when he first picked you up
    Em              C
when he drove you around, bought you powder and flowers
G          D
until the thrill was gone


       Em  C
but you said I'm alright
   G    D
baby I don't mind
     Em   C
I'll get on just fine
    G     D      D
on them long long drives


Em      C   G       D
  last night I remembered being 17
Em         C            G          D
I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and rites of spring


Em            C
spent every night with cassettes that she liked
   G           D
in a car that I borrowed a lot
      Em         C      G    D    D
and I could never get her to believe


     Em           C
'Cause we tasted a kiss that was sent from below
    G            D
it was cool in the night I was old as a stone
    Em            C
in the back of the car with a child at heart
   G            D
who suddenly showed you their teeth


       Em  C
but you said I'm alright
    G    D
Jamie, I don't mind
     Em   C
I'll get on just fine
    G     D     Em     C   G  D
On them long long drives without you
      Em      C    G    D
drives without you


      Em            C
And I still see him sometimes and he doesn't look right
  G             D
you left me for him then you left him for spite
 Em           C       G
I hope you never pay that price
  D       G
