[Verse 1]
C                  F                 C
  They didn't ever say where we were going
        F                    G
We just climbed into the backseat
G                     Am7
Eyes wide open to the picture show outside
Am7                              F
   I guess we really didn't understand it all
C                  F                       C
  Remember looking up at them in the front row
       F                       G
Hands touched together, almost outta sight
G                                       Am7
It's been a long, hard week but now the slow release
                 F
Of a Sunday afternoon
G                                      Am             F
  And we were only young but they were trying hard to reach us
G                                  Am                 F
  How was I to know that there was something so worth keeping?
F
  'Cause we were


[Chorus]
C
Watching the world through an open window
Dm7
Trees lined up like dominoes
C
This old car could find its own way home
         F
It's the ordinary things that mean so much
G                         Am
That's where I learned it all, from them
   F                  C
To fight, to love, to laugh again
G                      Am           F
Man, I thought we were only wasting time
F                 C     F C F
  Out on a Sunday drive


[Verse 2]
C                     F                     C
  The sun warms your soul just like an old friend
                         G
Singing songs along that ribbon of a road
                                           Am
And everyone you love is sitting there, so close
Am7                                     F
  You're never thinking that you'd ever get old
F
No, you'll never get old


[Chorus]
     C
Just watching the world through an open window
Dm7
Trees lined up like dominoes
C
This old car could find its own way home
         F
It's the ordinary things that mean so much
G                         Am
That's where I learned it all, from them
   F                  C
To fight, to love, to laugh again
G                      Am           F
Man, I thought we were only wasting time
F                  C     F     G  Am C F G
   Out on a Sunday drive,   oh


[Verse 3]
C                    F       C
  I never said where we were going
                          G
I just helped them to the back seat
G
  Dad, just laughed and said
            Am
"Son, don't drive too far"
Am                                   F
  Your momma gets pretty tired these days
C             F                  C               F
  After a few miles I guess they recognized some places
      G
And I listened as they reminisced
G                                    Am
  About a world that they had always known
Am
And how it's changing
                            F
Probably never gonna be the same again
G                                       Am                F
  I caught 'em in the mirror, they were holding hands and smiling
G                             Am
  Looking younger than they'd been in years
F
Oh, through all the years
F
And they were


[Chorus]
C
Watching the world through an open window
Dm7
Trees lined up like dominoes
C
This old car could find its own way home
         F
It's the ordinary things that mean so much
G                         Am
That's where I learned it all, from them
   F                  C
To fight, to love, to laugh again
G                      Am           F
Man, I thought we were only wasting time
F                  C
   Out on a Sunday drive


[Outro]
Dm7                 C
    Out on a Sunday drive
F                   C
    Out on a Sunday drive
Dm7                 C     F
    Out on a Sunday drive
