D

IEf it takes ten thousand miles, I'll keep driving day and night

D - E[stop] [play riff once]

Till I drive you out of my mind.

A lovers' moon is taunting me

With every mile I put between you and these broken dreams.

I slam my foot down to the floor

Trying hard to push for more, but still - your face I see.

I'm riding that thin red line out on the edge of control;

Trying to get a grasp on what I can't get a hold.

And I'll keep on driving girl, 'till I run out of road,

Or I fall off the edge of this world.

[CHORUS, then play RIFF twice]

IF♯m'll keep on driviEng girl, 'till DI run out ofD road,

ODr I fall off tDhe edge of thiEs world. E [into CHORUS]

Please send any corrections directly to me.

I've tried to write out the riff as simply as possible, with \ representing

a downstrum, / representing an upstrum, and | representing the start of a

measure. It's pretty close to what's on the CD.

In the verses and chorus, each letter usually represents two measures of

music unless the letters are connected by a hyphen.

The exception is for the verse starting with "Now I'm racing down..."

and the half-verse before the last chorus. These are only one measure for

each letter unless connected by a hyphen.
