Am-riff	      Dm                      Am-riff
Antiques!  Every other sentiment an antique
   Dm                          Dm7
As obsolete as warships in the Baltic
    Am-riff    Dm                           Am-riff
I'm driving    on a straight road, it never alters
        Dm                          Dm7
And the radio serenades and doesn't falter

Bridge 1:
C          F                     G
You offer  infrared instead of sun
C         F                       G
You offer paper spoons and bubble gum

Am-riff               Dm                         Am-riff
Late sky-like an all-night radio station without morning
     Dm                                Dm7
Like stumbling on Pearl Harbor without warning

Bridge 2:
C          F                   G
You offer  infrared instead of sun
C         F                           
You offer bubble gum

Chorus:
D           Dmaj7  A                      Gmaj7
You give me Faron  Young, four in the morning
(repeat)

Em	Bm	  Em    Bm
Every mother's son romantic, 
Gm		C         Am-riff
Every mother's son is frantic

       Dm				Am-riff
The sunset makes a fence out of the forest
	Dm			        Dm7	Am-riff
And here I am with head inside the bonnet
       Dm				Dm7
I've lost just what it takes to be honest

Bridge2
