verse 1:  
 
E                     F#            A             E    F#  A    
Put your hands on the wheel Let the golden age begin 
E                  F#        A                    E    F#  A   
Let the window down feel the moonlight on your skin 
E              F#    A                  E    F#  A   
Let the desert wind cool your aching head 
E                       F#  A               E    F#  A   
Let the weight of the world drift away instead 
 
 
Chorus 1: 
 
D  A    F#m       A           E   F#m 
Ohh   These days I barely get by 
A              E  F#m  A  E  (riff) 
I don't even try 
 
 
verse 2: 
 
E                  F#          A            E    F#  A   
It's a treacherous road with a desolated view 
E                  F#                  A          E    F#  A   
There's distant lights but here they're far and few 
E                     F#          A      E    F#  A   
And the sun don't shine even when its day 
E                     F#            A               E    F#  A   
You gotta drive all night just to feel like you're ok 
 
 
Chorus 2: 
 
D  A    F#m       A           E   F#m 
Ohh   These days I barely get by 
A              E  F#m  A  E  (riff) 
I don't even try 
A              E  F#m  A  E  (riff) 
I don't even try 
A              E  F#m  A  E  (riff) 
I don't even try
