Drivin' Written by Ray Davies
[F]Doo doo doo [Bb]doo. Dididi [E]doo doo doo [A]doo
[Eb]Doo doo doo [Ab]doo doo. [D]Did did doo [G]doo
[D]Dididi doo doo [G]doo
[Cm] It seems like all the world is [Gm]fighting
[Bb] They're even talking of a [F]war (ooo ooo [F7]ooo)
[F]Let all the Russians and the Chinese
And the Spanish do their [Bb]fighting
The sun is [D7]shining
We're going [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin'
[F]Drop all your [Bb]work
[E]Leave it be[A]hind
[D]Forget all your [G]problems
[C#]And get in my [F#]car
And take a [C#]drive with [F#]me
The [F]sandwiches are [Bb]packed
The [E]tea is in the [A]flask
We've [Eb]plenty of [Ab]beer
And [D]gooseberry [G]tarts
So take a [D]drive with [G]me
[Cm] We'll take your mother if you [Gm]want to
[Bb] We'll have a picnic on the [F]grass (ooo ooo [F7]ooo)
[F7]Forget your nephews and your cousins
And your brothers and your [Bb]sisters
They'll never [D7]miss us
'Cos we'll be [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin'. [G]dri[D]vin'. [G]dri[D]vin'
[F]Thousands of [Bb]trees
[E]Hundreds of [A]fields
[D]Millions of [G]birds
So [C#]why don't you [F#]come
And take a [C#]drive with [F#]me
We'll [F]talk to the [Bb]cows
And [E]laugh at the [A]sheep
We'll [D]lie in a [G]field
And [C#]we'll have a [F#]sleep
So take a [C#]drive with [F#]me
[Cm] And all the troubled world a[Gm]round us
[Bb] Seems an eternity a[F]way (ooo ooo [F7]ooo)
[F]And all the debt collectors, rent collectors
All will be [Bb]behind us
But they'll never [D7]find us
'Cos we'll be [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin'
(Solo- F Bb E A Eb Ab D G )
[D]Drive with [G]me...[D]Drive with [G]me...
[F]Passed Barnet [Bb]Church
[E] Up to Potters [A]Bar
We [Eb]won't be home [Ab]late
It's [D]not very [G]far
D G D G (Break)
So take a drive with me, take a drive with me
[G]Dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin', [G]dri[D]vin' ....repeat into the sunset
Note: On the 'Drivin'.. parts, the bass does A nice walk. G F# F E D E F F# G
kind of thing. And remember, don't go too fast and don't drink while playing
this song.
