Drivin'€™ Around Lyrics

"Drivin' Around"
(Eric Carmen - David Smalley)
Intro:
acoustic guitar:
v v
(Long...)
Acapella (chords implied by harmonies):
Long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays (oh, baby)
acoustic guitar:
v v
(Long...)
Long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays
(bass enters on 1 beat of following chords):
You know my tape deck is blastin'
My car's fast
Verse 1:
12-string alternates xx7650 and xx7670
When school lets out and the summer's here
12-string alternates xx5430 and xx5450
We'll have some time for the sun
Throw my notebooks out and put my car in gear
We'll be having some fun
Chorus:
Drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
Oooh, drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
You know my tape deck is blastin'
My car's fast
Verse 2:
With my girl by my side, we can go for a ride
And find a place we can dance
When it get real dark, we can stop in the park
And have a back seat romance
repeat chorus
Bridge:
/ / I'll be waiting all through the year
Just to get you alone with nobody near
Baby don't be late 'cause I just can't wait
All I wanna do is make love to you
guitar solo over chorus chords
repeat verse 2
repeat chorus
repeat chorus; pause on "my car's fast"
Coda (repeat to fade):
I'm drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
Drivin' around (long hot days we'll be catchin' the rays)
