By request, You Can Sleep While I Drive...third in a series.
BTW, does anyone have the tab for Love & Rockets' Saudade, from the
album Seventh Dream Of Teenage Heaven? I didn't notice a L&R
directory at nevada, although I could have overlooked it..
Please post or mail it if you do, anyway...this song is a longtime
favourite...

Dm C (2 fr.)
Come on baby, let's get out of this town
Dm C (2 fr.)
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
There's a [Bb]chill in my bones, I don't want to [Am]be left al[F]one
C (2 fr.)
so baby you can sleep while I drive
Dm C (2 fr.)
I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar
Dm C (2 fr.)
In my pocket I'll carry my harp
I got some [Bb]money I've saved enough to [Am]get under[F]way
Bb F C (2 fr.)
and baby you can sleep while I drive
Dm C (2 fr.)
We'll go through Tucson up to Santa Fe
Dm C (2 fr.)
and Barb'ra in Nashville says we're welcome to stay
I'll buy you [Bb]glasses in Texas, a hat [Am]from New Or[F]leans
Bb F C (2 fr.)
and in the morning you can tell me your dreams
You know I'[G7]ve 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 in[Bb]tentions are true, won't you take me [Am]with y[F]ou?
Bb F C (2 fr.)
and baby you can sleep while I drive
Dsus4 Dm |C C (2 fr.) C |
Dsus4 Dm |C C (2 fr.) C |
[Am]Oh [G] [C] is it other arms you want to
[Am]hold [G7] [C]you the stranger the [Bb]lover you're free
Can't you [Am]get that from [F]me?
Dm C (2 fr.)
Come on baby let's get out of this town
Dm C (2 fr.)
I've got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
If you won't [Bb]take me with you, I'll go be[Am]fore night is [F]through
Bb F C (2 fr.)
And baby you can sleep while I drive

Back on "oh...is it other arms you want to....", that first G
might be a G7. I think the G sounds better, but be your own judges...
Any requests for my next endeavor?
