Intro Chords: G, Em 



Em                 G 
We drove after the show 
Em                 G 
On dark and windy roads 
Em                 G 
The fog was so thick 
C                  D 
We couldn't see through it 
Em                 G   
We had to take it slow 
Em                 G 
But little did I know 
Em                          G 
That while I did my best to keep us alive 
C                               D 
You were dying out there on the west coast 


        C                             D 
And the blue and red lights looked so bright in the fog 
        G                    C 
With no seatbelts on and an expired license plate 
       Am                               D 
That vermont state police man must have known  

what was to come 
            G                 C 
She took it easy on us and he let us drive away 
    Am                      D                       G                 C 
The road seemed to go on forever that night and the hour kept getting late 
    Am                     D 
The cell phone towers that we drove past 
      G         Gmaj7    C 
Had a grim look on their face 
         Am                    D 
Cuz they knew what they had to do 
         G                        C 
But they didn't want to break the news 
        Am             D               G 
It's an awful job that no one wants to do                    (Continue these chords) 



Kept awake by crazy dogs 

Too much baking powder used 

I had seven missed calls 

So I knew that it was bad bad news 

I went to the van 

The taste of metal in my mouth 

I played the message back again and again 

Just hoping that I heard it wrong somehow 



And the people on the streets, they stared at me 

As I stared off into space 

Like a statue in the back seat, like a coffin in the grave 

I sat frozen in purple rain 

And I waited for the phone call to come to tell me 

That this was one of your pranks 

And I waited for weeks and weeks to let a 

Tear roll down my face 

And I knew what they had to do 

But I didn't want to break the news 

It's an awful job that no one wants to do 



So this is where you went 

When you left to try and kill the president 

We tracked you down 

And we dragged you back into the van somehow 

I threw you against a fence 

I felt so bad for doing it 

The next morning I just left 

I drove home alone feeling so fuckin sick 



And somewhere in pennsylvania  

I saw a dozen amish women on a bridge 

They waved at me when I drove underneath 

I was worried about what it meant 

This was years ago I know I know 

But now I'm back again 

And the goddamn telephone's telling me 

That I don't have a best friend 

I don't what to go home 

Because it's home's not where I live 

So I played that message one more time again
