ESince it's too late to stay here
Maybe I could C#mtake up a G#mseat?E

With these C#mphrases on G#mrepeatE  
Sure as high times F#min summer
Will lead to a G#mheartache in C#mfallF#m  
If I get over that Ariver, babe
I'll run blindly through it Eall

ACome on Edown

AYou might be the oG#mnly C#mone
[Verse]
EIt was almost time for bed
And I C#mtried to keG#mep from wonderingE  
Of something so close it was too C#measy to G#msee
EThe image of that F#mone girl
The one that G#mleft me C#mgunned down
F#mShowed herself Ain to keep me companyE  
EWith a motor in my head that C#mwon't stop G#mrunning
EA hand in my pocket that C#mwon't leave me G#mbe
EThat storm in F#mmy belly you know it just G#mkeeps on C#mthundering
And it won't F#mhush Atill you drift to meE  
[Chorus]
ASo come on Edown
ACome on Edown
AYou might be the oG#mnly C#mone

The image of that one girl

With a motor in my head that won't stop running
