[Verse 1]
G Em C
Exit on a whim
G Em D/F#
Hopefully, we find it again
G Em C
I'm tired of turning back
G Em D/F#
Let's keep on moving down the track
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em
And if the horse lies down
G Em
There's a push just a mile uptown
G Em
If the horse lies down
[Chorus]
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wake me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tired, I don't wanna miss the ride
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wake me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tired, I don't wanna miss the ride
[Verse 2]
G Em C
Hand upon my skin
G Em D/F#
Warm me up and calm me down
G Em C
I like to watch your chin
G Em D/F#
Tracing the familiar sound
G Em
Of a famous song
G Em
Put one on, let's sing along
G Em
To the famous song
[Chorus]
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wakе me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tirеd, I don't wanna miss a ride
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wake me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tired, I don't wanna miss a ride
[Verse 3]
G Em C
Vacancy is none
G Em D/F#
The same ideas from everyone
G Em C
We never plan ahead
G Em D/F#
We take the gamble on instead
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em
And if they turn us down
G Em
Find a warm bed in the next town
G Em
If they turn us down
[Chorus]
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wakе me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tirеd, I don't wanna miss the ride
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wake me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tired, I don't wanna miss the ride
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wakе me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tirеd, I don't wanna miss the ride
C Em
Wake me up to drive, wake me up to drive
G Em
Even if I'm tired, I don't wanna miss the ride
