Sleepdriving by Grand Archives – Capo 3


Am                  C      
Snow fell thick and small
C
It buried a starlit fog
    G
You remembered it all
Am       C        G     G
I'm sleepdriving away

Am              C      
Metal and mold, bourbon and clove
C
Mirrors and smoke
G
Yesterday's clothes
Am       C        G     G
I'm sleepdriving away
 
Am           C       C      G
Eyes through your window, I stare out
    Am        C         C      G
And some, someday we'll be too old

Am                  C
Cold will ache with making you jaw
       C
You're only as old
       G
As you say that we are
Am       C        G     G
I'm sleepdriving away

Am
The trunk of the car
            C
Filled with all that we own
         C                     G
This old Pontiac's starting to feel like a boat
Am       C        G     G
I'm sleepdriving away

Am           C       C      G
Eyes through your window, I stare out
    Am        C         C      G
And some, someday we'll be too old

            C                G
It's nearly dawn, your motel home
                C                 G
The shades were drawn to hide the storm
          C             G
Without a sound, the TV glows
             C            G
The blankets tight around our throats

          C                G
Swirling 'round, the light above
            C                 G
Outside the crows were waking up
            C
It's nearly dawn
      G               C
Motel home was nearly gone
            C     G
No sleep at all

C   G

   C           G
Outside, those crows
   C        G
In life, oh noes
