A D
Big city miles stretching out
A
into the terminal horizon
Bm A
Don't you know we had to get away?
A D
It was two kids with a beat up Nova,
A
and a dream and a two a.m. song
A D
It was two kids with a beat up Nova
A
singing come carry on
[Chorus:]
D A D A
Come carry on 'till the night's all gone
D
come carry on
E A
come right where we belong
A D
The impossible girl lit a cigarette
A
and said "I don't give a damn if we never come home"
A D
and I turned to her in the old starlight
A
and a tender amazement swallowed up the night
A D
We could walk along be forever strong
A
drive into the night, and the right, and the wrong
A D
It was two kids with a beat up Nova,
A
and a dream, and a two A.M. song
singing...
[Chorus]
A D A A
A D A A
E G
There ain't no dream like the one that's real
A
Ashby to Eighty
C
Eighty to the Bridge
A
Bridge down to One
Em
Route One carry on
A E
We ate the night up and we shot the big coast
A
'cause the shoreline makes a heart open like a rose
A
She found a song on the radio
and it wiped all the blood off my halo
A E A
It was two kids, whose hearts were their own
Toughest that the world has ever known
[Chorus]
