[Verse 1]
G                      Bm       Em
 Holed up in Vegas for only one week
                D                C           Bm           Am
And I caught you tongue and cheek by the side  of the road
        Am/G       F#5
Of an automobile expo
Em                             G          C
  Turned up the volume and you started to weep
                        G
And I thought you a lamb

[Chorus 1]
D                       G        C
Even in the sigh of the headlight sea
          Am            D7
Your tears  were salty ocean
    Em                       G             C
You opened up the engine and listened to it sing
And I thought you a lamb

[Instrumental]
       | G  - | -    Em | -   D |
| C Bm | Am - | Am/G -  | F#5 - |

| G -  |

[Verse 2]
G                         Bm           Em
 You knew your daddy 'til you were thirteen
           D              C             Bm           Am
And then he took his leave for the likes  of the land
            Am/G       F#5
And the far off salty ocean
Em                           G         C
  We shook our bodies and we started to scream
                   G
And I asked you again

[Chorus 2]
D
Tell me when we grow up,
      G      C
do we ever go home?
         Am                   D7
You said home becomes the highway

[Verse 3]
G                       Bm   Em
 We ordered movies on a motel  screen
         D         C           Bm             Am
Until you needed me warm inside  of your mouth
       Am/G            F#5
And my skin was salty ocean
    Em                         G       C
And then you recommended I'm a woman to keep
                      G
And I called you a man
