Standard (EADGBE)

I drove past you’re town today

Though I never left the motorway

When I saw the sign

When I saw the sign

I thought about you

And I found myself so near

To someone that I hold so dear

But I was strong enough to steer

I was strong enough to steer

Around you

If I took the turn off for your town

Wouldn’t be that hard to track you down

Or to think of an excuse

For me to be there

I could call you first

let you make the choice

Would it be enough just to hear your voice

Or should I just arrive

And surprise you

When I drove past your town today

I recalled all the things that you used to say

And I wondered why I never had

An answer

When you said it was me that could not cope

and I’d never trade comfort for hope

Then I did

I could see I scared you

No but I’d never ask

We both know that I’ve got too much class

When I saw the sign

When I saw the sign

I thought about you

Lead in to the end of the song with a heavy strum riff.

Did you feel something near

Something familiar, something so Dear

Something strange at the end of the day

That took your thought patterns and swept them away

Did you look out the window to the outskirts of town

Where there’s only a road and the Sun going down

Did that Sun blind your eyes so that you could not see

Life passing you by at illegal speeds

Did you remember something you weren’t brave enough to do

Well right at that moment

 I thought about you

Same exit riff
