[Intro]
C   F   C   F
[Verse 1]
CLast night you pushed me a little too far
I was Fnot coming back when I F7left in the car
CThere was a time, about an D7hour or two
When I was Gfeeling so free from you
[Verse 2]
CPicked up a bottle and drove to The Heights
I Fparked on the ridge and I F7looked at the lights
The Cengine was off and the D7radio on
And the singer Gsang and I sang along
[Chorus]
CI was almost free
They're almost poisoning you and me
GI was almost Cfree
FWhole new life ahead of me
Almost CfreeF  G  
[Verse 3]
The Csunrise rising over the wheel
The Fbottle's empty and F7so is the feel
CThis car knows that it's the D7wrong thing to do
But it's Gdriving me home to you
[Verse 4]
CMaybe I'm too much in love to be strong
FMaybe there's one way F7to be gone
A Cfew more pills, a D7little more wine
And I can Gget very hard to find
[Chorus]
CI was almost free
They're almost poisoning you and me
GI was almost Cfree
FWhole new life ahead of me
[Verse 5]
The Csun rise rising over the wheel
The Fbottle's empty and F7so is the feel
A Cfew more pills, a D7little more wine
I can Gget very hard to find
[Chorus]
CI was almost free
They're almost poisoning you and me
GI was almost Cfree
