Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Laying in your bed and on a Saturday night

 You’re sweating buckets and it’s not even hot.

 Cause your brain has got the message and it’s sending it out

 To every bone and every muscle you got.

You got so many dreams that you don't know where to put them

 So you better turn a few of them loose.

Your body has got a feeling that it’s starting to rust

 You gotta remedy it to put it to use.

And I don't know how I ever thought that I could make it all alone

 When you only make better and it better be tonight

 And we'll fly away on those angel wings that grow from your daddy's car

We'll be there for you tonight

 I'll be there for you tonight

And if you don't have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll

And even if you don't have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll

 And your speed is all you'll ever need, all you'll ever need to know

Darling! Darling!

(Sometimes and others )

You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly

And we gonna get away from the past

There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby

But we should be goin' nowhere fast

Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly

They're only fighting for the chance to be last

There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby

But we should be goin' nowhere fast

It's so much better goin' nowhere fast

Stalking in the shadows by the light of the moon

 It’s like a prison and the night is a cell

 Going' anywhere has gotta be heaven tonight

 'Cos staying here has gotta be hell

You’re dying in the city like a fire on the water

 Let’s go running on the back of the wind

There’s got to be some action on the face of the earth

 And I gotta see your face once again

And I don't know where I am or got the bright idea that I was cool

 So alone and independent but I'm depending on you now

 And you'll always be the only thing that I just can't live without

And I'm out for you tonight

 I'm coming out for you tonight

And if you don't have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll

And even if you don't have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you're ready to roll

 And your speed is all you'll ever need, all you'll ever need to know

Darling! Darling!

(Sometimes and others )

You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly

And we gonna get away from the past

There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby

But we should be goin' nowhere fast

Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly

They're only fighting for the chance to be last

There's nothin' wrong with goin' nowhere baby

But we should be goin' nowhere fast

It's so much better goin' nowhere fast

Godspeed! Godspeed! Godspeed! Speed us away!
