Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  like the peace
In  the backseat
I  don’t have to drive
I  don’t have to speak
I  can watch the country side
And  I can fall asleep
My  family tree’s
loosing  all it’s leaves
Crashing  towards the driver’s seat
 The lightning  bolt made enough heat
 To melt  the street beneath your feet
 Alice died
 In the night
 I’ve been learning  to drive
 My whole life
 I’ve been learning
I  like the peace
In  the backseat
I  don’t have to drive
I  don’t have to speak
I  can watch the country side
 Alice died
 In the night
 I’ve been learning  to drive
 My whole life
 I’ve been learning Oh  ooooooooooh
 My Whole life
