**CAPO 2**

Intro: Bm  G

      Bm                                                             
Been down this street so many times, could hit the gas and close my eyes
G
And not touch a thing
    Bm
The doorways here are always dark, keep movin' it's not safe to park
G
'Cause this ain't no lover's lane
      Bm
It's where infatuation goes, you hit this long strange stretch of road
G
And you don't know where it leads
    Em
But if we're goin' anywhere only this'll take us there
G                             A
So baby hold your breath and wrap your arms around me, yeah


Chorus:
D               A 
Here we go now, a little closer
Em                  G
Keep your head down on my shoulder
D                          A
We're on our way but it's gonna get rough
Em                 G               Bm    G
On this road, the road to lasting love


Bm 
Look into the rear view mirror, remember all that got us here
G
We're gonna need it later
Bm
Out the window, all around, dreams in pieces on the ground
G
'Cause it won't be easy baby
Bm
You know if faith and hope and trust ain't ridin' in these hearts with us
G
This trip's gonna break on me
        Em
Oh I've never seen the other side but girl when you look in my eyes
G                             A
I've seen it out there, I believe that we can make it baby


CHORUS

           G                     Bm
There's a light up ahead that we all wanna reach
      F#7                        G
So we grab every chance that we can
        Em                      D
But we lose and get lost just a few get across
      C
This broken promise land


CHORUS (twice)
