Introduction:
E C#m
I'm digging to the glove box
G#m F#
I thought I had a map in here

The driver's door doesn't lock

I bought the car my junior year
E C#m
Those candy in my backpack
G#m F#
And you can pick a soundtrack
E C#m
We're headed from the East Coast tonight
G#m F#
So pack your bags and hold on tight
E C#m G#m F#
Cause we're taking off
E C#m G#m F#
We're taking off
Chorus
E B
Run away with me
F#
We're on the way to New York City
E B G#m
Take my hand and see
F#
Manhattan never looked so pretty
E B
Travel light and see the world right
F#
You'll never know if you never go, so
E C#m G#m
Run away with me
F# B
And say hello to New York City
verse 2
E C#m
Feet up on the dashboard
G#m F#
We're driving with the windows down
E C#m
Did you forget your phone cord
G#m F#
We'll buy one in the next small town
E C#m
Get dinner at an IHOP
G#m F#
A shower at the truck stop
E C#m
We listen at some Johnny Cash
G#m F#
Take my hand and don't look back
E C#m G#m F#
Cause we're movin' on (da-da-da-da, da-da-da)
E C#m G#m F#
We're movin' on (da-da-da-da, da-da-da)
