[INTRO]
Em A D
[VERSE 1]
D G
If I had a dollar for each time you let me down
D G
Then I'd have been a rich man long ago
D C G
But the thing with lofty notions is you got to let them go
Em A
Relieve yourself of proof
Em A
Believe in higher truth
Em A Bm A G
And look for deeper meaning like the way that poets do
Em A D
So I only ride shotgun for you
[VERSE 2]
D G
Heading out with you behind the wheel is like a poem
D G
I hold my tongue and exercise restraint
D C G
That old familiar roadhouse always puts us in the mood
Em A
Just as we cross the track
Em A
I watch you knock them back
Em A
And though we see those city lights
Bm A G
Instead, we hit the sack
Em A D
I only ride shotgun for you
[BRIDGE]
Bm G
Highways bring on loneliness but I won't beg forgiveness
Bm D A
'Cause that is where I'm happiest to be
Em
With you there next to me
[INSTRUMENTAL]
A Em A Em A Em A
[VERSE 3]
Em A
So I'll send them my regards
Em A
In that dark and moldy bar
Em A Em A
Now I won't have to gamble 'cause that's always where you are
Em A Em A
But like a shooting star, I'm useless from afar
Em A Bm A G
So I'm blazing for glory to come get you in my car
Em A Bm A G
And darling, you know my aim is true
Em A D
'Cause I only ride shotgun for you
