Am G7
She fed me strawberries and
Am
freezer-burned ice cream
E7
I said "Good-bye I guess"
Fmaj7th
She lifted up her dress
D7
and so I must confess
we made out one more
Em A7 D Em A7 D
time before I left for good
Em A7 D Em A7
She thought I'd come back but I
Bflat F E7
wouldn't want to seem like other guys
Am G7
A book-and-record love,
Am
we sat and read our books
E7
between those longing looks,
F
compounded by our fear
D7
My tongue inside her ear,
my tongue inside her
Em A7 D Em A7 D
in the basement of her mother's
Em A7 D Em A7
house where she once taped the
Bflat F Em C
first three sides of Sandanista! for my car
D G
We were looking for ourselves
F# Em
and found each other
Bm C
In the Car
D G
It was rare to do much more
F# Em
than simply mess around
Bm C
In the Car
D G F# Em
It was mostly mutual masturbation
Bm C D
And though we spoke of penetration
Am G
I'd have to wait for someone else to try it out
(Guitar Solo)
Am G
Am G
Once I had this dream
Am
where I slept with her mom
E7 Fmaj7
A secret all along, unless I've got this wrong
D7
unless she hears this song
unless she hears it
Em A7 D Em A7 D
on a tape inside her car
Em A7 D Em A7
with her new husband and she
Bflat F E7
turns to him and says "I think that's me"
C
In the Car
D G
we were looking for ourselves
F# Em
but found each other
Bm C
In the Car
D
We groped for excuses
G F# Em
not to be alone anymore
Bm C
In the Car
D G
we were waiting for our lives
F# Em
to start their endings
Bm C
In the Car
D Cmaj7
We were never making love
D Cmaj7
We were never making love
D F G
We were never making love
