Hitched Up Kids

Intro: C F C G
       C F C G

     C                                  F
If I close my eyes, maybe I'll be gone away
                                C
I'll wake up to those dirty old highway signs
                               G
It seems like such a long time ago
        C
When we all bundled up and said
                            F
"Sure, we got a long way to drive,
                              C
But to me there ain't no more right,
                     G
Never been closer to home."

Chorus:
F
 We'll be those hitched-up kids
      C
Got a knife in my pocket, a needle in our grins
            G                        F
And I could fall in love forever and never come up with an empty hand.

         C F C G


          C
Well I've heard all your stories a thousand times
           F                        C
Seems like gasoline runs through my veins
                       G
Paint me pictures of a dream I never lost
    C                               F
And sing me a song, teach me how to sing
                                 C
The ones they don't teach you at school.
                                   G
We'll make a deadly choir, you and me.


(Strike chords once)
   Am               C         G
So go on, turn that telephone off,
             C
Wasn't gonna pick it up anyway...
