Gm          Am
Another car is stopping for gas ,
                 Gm         Am
be careful with that burning match ,
          Gm    Am  G   F
the radio is playing Nat King Cole ,
F7  G   F   Am
Nat King Cole sings .

               Gm          Am
Another stranger turns the wheel ,
              Gm          Am
I stay behind in silence and feel
            Gm          Am  G  F
the oil on overall and hands is all that's left ,
F7  G  F  Am    G    Em
 all left for me .

F               Am    G    Em
Better late than never ,
F                Am    G    Em
here come the sunny days .
F                    Am   G    Em
You keep your eyes wide open ,
F            Am  G   F
and all I say is Yes , Yes , Yes ,
F7  G   F  Am
Yes , Yes , me too !

Gm           Am
Gm           Am
Gm           Am    G    F
F7    G    F    Am

              Gm          Am
I'm ready for a kick in the back ,
              Gm            Am
I'm ready for another hopeless wreck ,
              Gm    Am  G  F
I'm ready for a night so long and black ,
F7  G  F  Am    G    Em
 so long and black .

F               Am    G    Em
Better late than never ,
F                Am    G    Em
here come the sunny days .
F                  Am   G    Em
I keep my eyes wide open ,
F             Am    G    Em
and all I say is Yes .
F                  Am      G     Em
Here come the best years of my life ,
F            Am  G   F
and all I say is Yes , Yes , Yes ,
F7  G   F  Am
Yes , Yes , me too !

              Gm       Am
Another night of counting cars ,
               Gm     Am
the magazines and candy bars ,
             Gm     Am   G     F
and everybody's driving home , they're home ;
F7  G F  Am
home before dark .
