[Intro]
[Bm] [E] [E7]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]                         [E]          [E7]
He seemed impressed by the way you came in.
[Bm]
"Tell us a story
   [E]          [E7]
I know you're not boring"
[Bm]                  [E]             [E7]
I was afraid that you would not insist.
[Bm]
"You sound so sleepy
     [E]              [E7]
just take this, now leave me"

[Pre-Chorus]
[Bm]
I said please don't slow me down
             [E]     [E7]
If I'm going too fast
[Bm]                      [E]     [E7]
You're in a strange part of our town...

[Chorus]
[D]         [F#m]
Yeah, the night's not over
[G]          [A]           [D]
You're not trying hard enough,
      [F#m]              [G]
Our lives are changing lanes
     [A]             [D]
You ran me off the road,
    [F#m]
The wait is over
[G]         [A]
I'm now taking over,
[D]         [F#m]
You're no longer laughing
[G]          [A]
I'm not drowning fast enough.

[Verse 2]
[Bm]                    [E]        [E7]
Now every time that I look at myself
[Bm]
"I thought I told you
      [E]       [E7]
this world is not for you"
[Bm]                            [E]         [E7]
The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
[Bm]
"you sound so angry
      [E]            [E7]
just calm down, you found me"

[Pre-Chorus]
[Bm]
I said please don't slow me down
             [E]   [E7]
If I'm going too fast
[Bm]                       [E]      [E7]
You're in a strange part of our town...

[Chorus]
[D]         [F#m]
Yeah, the night's not over
[G]          [A]           [D]
You're not trying hard enough,
      [F#m]              [G]
Our lives are changing lanes
     [A]             [D]
You ran me off the road,
    [F#m]
The wait is over
[G]         [A]
I'm now taking over,
[D]         [F#m]
You're no longer laughing
[G]          [A]
I'm not drowning fast enough.
