Hey, hey, Carla
DG
It's a long way to Missouri
B7Em
From this highway
AmD
East of Roanoke
GC
We had a moment
DG
That felt like summer
B7Em
Now in slumber
AmD
I can see your smile
GC
We drive for miles
DG
Through corporate Ohio
B7Em
Rest stops in West Virginia
AmD
Traffic in Washington DC
G
But of all the scenes that I see
F
Played out this window to the left of me
EmCm
The thought of you it shines
GCC/BAmDG
The band plays on, I keep the time
GC
We play in the night time
DG
Awake before sunrise
B7Em
Wipe the sleep from my eyes
AmD
Coffee my best friend
GC
You dance between classes
DG
Complete difficult assignments
B7Em
Wonder where the time went
AmD
Out drinking with your friends
GC
We see a lot of beauty
DG
Some becomes ordinary
B7Em
Mountains, and canyons, and prairies
AmD
Sunset over Chesapeake Bay
GC
Dear, dear Carla
DG
It's only that I'm askin'
B7Em
Make time more easy for the passin'
AmD
If I knew I would see you again
G
Of all the beauty that I see
F
Out this window to the left of me
EmCm
The thought of you it shines
GCC/BAmDG
The band plays on, I keep the time
CC/BAmDG
The time is marked, between the lines
CC/BADG
Hmmm... I keep the time
END! (Thanks for giving Bob some love!)
