[Verse 1]
 A A6 A A6              E
They said love,  was a thing of the past
 A  A6  A  A6      E
That these days,  nothing ever lasts
 D                     E           A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6             
This whole world,  is moving too fast

 A A6 A A6           E
Well sometimes,  we ride around
 A                    E
She plays her radio,  up loud
 D                    E         A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6
If I was sad, well,  I'm happy now


[Chorus]
 A       D   A   E
And it feels so good to know
       D    A    E
I got you where you belong
 D          A        D           A  
Here in my heart,   Right by my side
 D            A         E
Honey you're getting me by
 D                       A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6
Yeah you're keeping me alive


[Verse 2]
 A A6 A A6    E
I got a job, I work hard
  A                         E
These days the money don’t go very far
 D                        E          A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6   
It’s hard enough keeping gas in the car
 A A6 A A6       E
Well sometimes, we ride around
 A                   E
She plays her radio, up loud
 D                   E         A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6 
If I was sad, well, I'm happy now

[Chorus]
 A       D   A   E
And it feels so good to know
       D    A    E
I got you where you belong
 D          A        D           A  
Here in my heart,   Right by my side
 D            A         E
Honey you're getting me by
 D                       A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6
Yeah you're keeping me alive

I got you where you belong
 D          A        D           A  
Here in my heart,   Right by my side
 D            A         E
Honey you're getting me by
 D                       A A6 A A6 A A6 A A6
