Lyrics

[Intro]
| E7 | Aadd9/E | Amadd9/E | Em7 |

| -  |

[Verse 1]
E5                                    Am9
  In our head lights, staring, bleak, beer cans,
deer's eyes
E5
  On the asphalt underneath ,
    Am9
our crushed plans and my lies

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm7add11             Am9                      E5
Lonely street signs, powerlines, they keep on flashing,
flashing by, flashing

[Chorus]
    Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
And we      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
    Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
And we      keep driving into the night
       Am9      Dadd9/A Em7
It's a late goodbye    

[Verse 2]
E5                                    Am9
  Your breath hot upon my cheeck, and we crossed,
that line
E5
  You made me strong when I was feeling weak,
    Am9
and we crossed, that one time

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm7add11              Am9                        E5
Screaming stop signs, staring wild eyes, keep on flashing,
flashing by, flashing

[Chorus]
    Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
And we      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
    Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
And we      keep driving into the night
       Am9      Dadd9/A Em7
It's a late goodbye    

[Bridge]
Bm7add11                Aadd9                   Am9
        The devil grins from ear to ear when he sees the
          G6
hand he's dealt us
Bm7add11              Aadd9
        Points at your     flaming hair,
               Am9              G6
and then we're playing hide and seek
Bm7add11        Aadd9
        I can't breathe easy here,
         Am9               G6
less our trail's gone cold behind us
Bm7add11             Aadd9                        Am9
        Till' in the john mirror you stare at yourself
              G6
grown old and weak

[Chorus]
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye

[Outro - Chorus]
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
       Am9       Dadd9/A       Em7
It's a late good bye,   such a late goodbye
Bm7add11     Aadd9     Am9    G6
We      keep driving into the night
