C                                          G
You're revvin and drivin' through the night when those stars line up like they should
              Am                                     F
You've turned in to what you've been through but you used to be of good
    C                                   G
You think of that old photograph; you're mom in '89
     Am                                             F
Your dad laughed said, "She was like that when she'd had herself too much wine."


[Verse]
           C                    G
You'd give anything at all to be anywhere but here
     Am                               F
Your breathing only steadies when you start to dissapear.
    C                                G
You wanna be in mountains or smellin' water by the coast
        Am                                    F
But you can't get out of your own mind so you settle in and coast


[Chorus]
         C               G
You just drive... to stay alive
         Am            F
One more day... passes by
         C                   G
You just drive... through the night
          Am                   F
'til that darkness... turns to sky


[Verse]
        C                              G
And you think about your sister and the mighty soul she has
           Am                            F
She's been sober for a year now; how the time seems to pass
     C                                 G
They told you it would go quick but you never tend to listen
    Am                                    F
And dont you miss your mama, boy, hummin' hymnals in the kitchen


[Verse]
         C                               G
And the concrete it's the same here as it is in Roger's County
      Am                             F
And I bet those boys are doin' fine, runnin' roads without me
    C                                       G
And don't you miss the days that you'd sneak Jack in football games
Am                           F
No one in this town remebers my name anyways.


[Chorus]
         C               G
You just drive... to stay alive
         Am               F
One more day... it passes by
         C                   G
You just drive... through the night
           Am                   F
Until that darkness... turns to sky


[Outro]
              C                                          G
You ever been drivin' through the night when those stars line up like they should
              Am                                     F
You've turned in to what you've been through but you used to be of good
    C                                   G
You think of that old photograph; you're mom in '89
     Am                                             F
Your dad laughed said, "She was like that when she'd had herself too much wine."
