Ruthie Collins - Me And Emmylou

      [Intro]
A D E A

[Verse 1]
A		D		E	A
Packed the hatchback of this yellow Toyota
A		D
Filled it up with gas
E			A
And what’s left of my dreams
A		D		E	A
Hoping Sunday morning that I make California
A		D
Come hell or high water
E		A
Whatever that means

[Chorus]
A D	     E		A
Ooh it’s just me and Emmylou
A			D
A thousand miles of blacktop
E		A
And a big blue sky
A		      D		A
She thinks she’s the queen of some Mexican desert
A			D		E    A
Her head hanging out the window as the trucks roll by

[Interlude]
A D E A

[Verse 2]
A		D	E	A
Stopped for the night in southern Colorado
A			D
Hoping there’s enough tequila
E		A
and limes in Telluride
A		      D
Well, Emmy tried to bite
	       E		A
 some drunk dime store cowboy
A		D	E		A
Guess her taste in men is still better than mine

[Chorus]
A D	     E		A
Ooh it’s just me and Emmylou
A		D
Drive through coffee
E		A
Pack of Pall Mall lights
A		D			A
She thinks she’s the queen of some Mexican desert
A			D		E    A
Her head hanging out the window as the trucks roll by

[Interlude]
A D E A

[Verse 3]
A		D
Well I can just see Emmy
E			A
Trying to dig a hole to China
A			D	E	A
While I’m drinking margaritas on Venice Beach
A		D		E	A
I wonder if you’ll miss me back there in Georgia
A		D		E
Well if you ever change your mind, you know where I’ll be

[Chorus]
A D	     E		A
Ooh now it’s just me and Emmylou
A			D
A thousand miles of blacktop
E		A
And room enough to fly
A		D			A
She still thinks she’s the queen of some Mexican desert
A			D		E    A
Her head hanging out the window as the trucks roll by
A		D		E    A
And it sure feels like we’re gonna be alright
A		D		E    A
My hand is out the sunroof waving goodbye

[Outro]
A D	     E		A
Ooh it’s just me and Emmylou
A D	     E		A
Ooh it’s just me and Emmylou
A			D
Her head hanging out the window
	A
And I’m driving all night
