I drove [C] out to Hubert on 3 and 5 [Am] in the morning, [F]
[Am] with a carry-on bag and a Southwest ticket
in my [F] hand.
[Am] [F]
[Am] You
[Dm]
[Am] were waiting at the gate in the same dress you wore the [Dm] night I met you.
[Am] We raced past the desk clerk, she looked up from her bookwork and [Dm] she smiled.
[Am] I'll [C] be [G] you and [F] you'll be I.
[Am] I'll [C] be [G] you and [F] you'll be I.
[A] [Am]
[F] Cold and blown, like a baseball diamond [C] waiting for the sun.
[F] Staying inside, your toes will stay dry but [C] never touch the sand.
[F] Going low, keep moving forward [C] trying to find the answer.
[F] Then you appear, my fate puts you here [C] and then I'm driving home.

[Dm]
[Am] I fumbled for the door, down on the sunlit desk [Dm] I let down and kissed you.
[Am] Your neck swept up like a graceful sail [Dm] caught in the wind.
[Am] We're the comeback kids, never forgetting what we did or where we [Dm] came from.
[Am] I held you so close as we slow danced a fox in the [Dm] snow.
[Am] [C] I'll be you [G] and [F] you'll be I.
[Am] [C] I'll be you [G] and [A] [F] you'll be I.
[A] [Am]
[F] Cold and blown, like a baseball diamond [C] waiting for the summer.
[F] Staying inside, your boots will stay dry but [C] never touch the sand.
[F] Going low, keep moving forward [C] trying to find the answer.
[F] Then you appear, my fate puts you here and [C] then I'm driving home.
