"Strangers in a Car"
Marc Cohn
Really quick, here are the chords:
[Bm] [A] [D/F#] [G]
That goes for most of the song except for the phrases that are best
characterized as "intense." He changes it to
[Bm] [A] [G] [D]
in order to give it more impact. That's all. Pretty simple.
Lyrics:
[Bm]There[A]'s a[D/F#] strange[G]r in a car
Driving down your street
Acts like he knows who you are
Slaps his hand on the empty seat and says
Are you gonna get in
Or are you gonna stay out
Just a stranger in a car
[Bm]Might [A]be th[G]e one t[D]hey told you about
[Bm]You ne[A]ver w[D/F#]ere one [G]for cautiousness
You open the door
He give you a tender kiss
Can't even here em no more
All the voices of choices
Now only one road remains (G D end)
Just strangers in car
TWo hearts two souls
Tonight two lanes (G D end)
Don't know where you're going
Don't know what you're doing
Hell it might be the highway to heaven
And it might be the road to ruin (G D end)
This is a song
For strangers in a car
Baby maybe that's all
We really are (G A D end this time)
Strangers in a car
Driving down your street
Strangers in a car.
Hope ya enjoy.
