Biografía:
In mid-70s Cleveland, singer-songwriter and current radio DJ Michael Stanley formed the heartland rock group Michael Stanley Band. The band recorded albums through the late 70s and early 80s while touring constantly across the American Midwest. After the group folded, Stanley has since worked as a solo artist. His highest charting singles with the Michael Stanley Band were "He Can't Love You" (a #33 hit) in 1980 and "My Town" in 1983 (a #39 hit), which both got decent nationwide airplay. Tune "Lover" is also a fan favorite.

this one was also a very minor US hit however huge in the Midwest it features the iconic line
"thank god for the man who put the white lines on the highway"
now this song is pretty simple the hardest part is the kind of double bass then chord
rhythm MS uses
so here we go another great song by MSB
Intro
E-A-B-E-A-B-E
E
Well the glow from the bars and a thousand stars
A B
Light the cold Ohio night
E A B
And the turnpike's slick, the snow's as thick as thieves
E A
Since your call came through there ain't nothing new
E A
But the radio and the headlights
E A
And the news at the top of the hour
B
That no one really believes,
Do they ...
C#m A B
Lover ... what you want to go and do that for
C#m A B
Lover ... why'd you want to tear it apart, ooh
C#m A B
Lover ... you say you got your reasons, I need more
C#m A
Lover ... ooh, give me back my heart
B E
Give it back girl
(THE VERSE AND THE CHORUS CONTINUE ON THE SAME WAY)
When the cold comes to stay it takes your breath away
And it makes the hours crawl
And it feels to me like I've been driving forever
Then your words return, the whole place burns
And I just don't know where to begin
Girl could you just make it anybody else
Anybody else but him
Could you ...
Lover ... what you want to go and do that for
Lover ... why'd you want to tear it apart, ooh
Lover ... you say you got your reasons, I need more
Lover ... ooh, give me back my heart
Bridge
B
And somewhere ahead tonight
A
With fine wine and candlelight
E B
He's gonna turn your head around
B C#m
Girl what you want me to do
E
If I leave this thing all up to you
A E
I'm gonna lose the best thing I've found
A B
I can see what's going down
Verse
So I talk to the night, I head for the light
Try to hold it on the road
Thank God for the man who put the white lines on the highway
Baby what you gonna do when the fire is through
And you find he's out looking for somebody new
Cause you did everything that he wanted you to do
And now you're all alone and crying
Aren't you ...
Chorus
Lover ... what you want to go and do that for
Lover ... why'd you want to tear it apart, ooh
Lover ... you say you got your reasons, I need more
Lover ... ooh, give me back my heart
Lover ... what you want to go and do that for
Lover ... tell me why'd you want to tear it apart, ooh
Lover ... you say you got your reasons, I need more
Lover ... you gotta give me back my heart, give it back girl
