Standard (EADGBE)
Through most of the song the two guitar players are pretty much playing chords at
different rhythms. I haven't tabbed out the solo part just yet and there are some little fills
throughout that you can figure out yourself. Very fun song to play!
Use barre chords and play around with the fingerings. In the recording they mute the 1st
and 6th strings most of the time.
Not coming back but I can't stop waiting
Give me a minute while my heart stops breaking
Give me a minute while I fix my tie
Give me a minute while I take my life
Back into my own hands,
There's a Chevy Thunder on the drive tonight
I'll take your father's car,
And I'm not coming back alive
You know you could've been here, honey
Sitting by my right-hand side, tonight
I'll take your father's car, and
Drive, drive, drive!
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go)
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know)
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder!
Once in a while not twice in a while
When heaven brakes, I see you smile
I know it hurts, I know it hurts,
I know, (woah ohh woah-oh)
I'm not what you want
You fell in love with an idea
And I was never never never never never enough
Tonight I'm riding out of here
You know you could've been here, honey
Sitting by my right-hand side, tonight
I'll take your father's car, and
Drive, drive, drive!
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go)
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know)
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder!
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go)
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know)
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder!

There's only so many ways to wake up,
To wake up, next to you
But every single time feels like
I'm waking up anew
Just give me one little piece of your heart
And I swear I will be true
Just give me one little piece of your heart
And I'll break my own in two, for you
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go)
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know)
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder!
And whatever I never could ever let you go (let you go)
I'm a lover and probably at heart but (I wouldn't know)
I'm riding I'm riding as fast as this car goes
Chevy Thunder, Chevy, Chevy Thunder!
