Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  can't stay
 I can't explain
 So I guess I'll sit back down and
Try  to describe it again.
 Someday  I might see you on the freeway
 At the end of the  day
 Driving your husband's new car
 And my good mood away.
 This indoor lifestyle
 And the headaches you had as a child
 My drinking and carrying on
 That you say are wild.
 Most of the time
 My head is simply not in the clouds
 And I don't often do something more
 Than my mom would allow.
 Girl I guess its over
 We could say let's just be friends
 But you know as well as I do
 That every highway has two ends.
 Boxes in the sand dunes
 Reactors tucked away in the hills
 The lampshades and the draperies
 And that bottle of those little purple pills.
 All this adds up
 To a sum that is somebody else
 We got down here together
 But you'll have to climb out by yourself.

And I don't often do something more
Than my mom would allow.

Girl I guess its over
We could say let's just be friends
But you know as well as I do
That every highway has two ends.

Boxes in the sand dunes
Reactors tucked away in the hills
The lampshades and the draperies
And that bottle of those little purple pills.

All this adds up
To a sum that is somebody else
We got down here together
But you'll have to climb out by yourself.
