[Verso 1]
 
D7M
What if I went wandering
A
In a '68 Volkswagen van down to your doorstep
D7M
And I asked you to leave with me
A
Don't know how we'd get back, nor when
 
[Verso 2]
 
D7M
Well I've got twenty-seven dollars
A
And a piece of shit car is what I said
D7M
Would you call me insane
A
Or would you pack a bag and take my hand
 
D7M
We drove the van on down to Utah
A7M
Saw the plateaus etched into the land
D7M
We wrote the love song of a blonde boy
A
Who's lost himself in trying to be a man
 
[Refrão]
D7M A
This lovely dream would be nothing without you in it
D
Take a step back, watch the sunset
A
Are you ready?
D7M A7M
Who would care though, I know I won't 'cause you're so pretty
D7M
Don't think too much 'cause you'll think twice
A
Are you with me?
 
( D A )
 
[Verso 3]
 
D7M
What if we went driving
A
On a winding road that never ends up through the Rockies
D7M
And you looked up outside your seat
A
And I caught you smiling at me, so sweet
 
[Verso 4]
 
D7M
One little van with just the two of us
A7M
Traveling alone led by the trees
D7M
Automobile filled with our love
A7M
A dream that I bury under the sheets
 
[Refrão]
D7M A7M
This lovely dream would be nothing without you in it

Take a step back, watch the sunset

Are you ready?
