Rest stop          Matchbox 20

Em                       G
Just three miles from the rest stop
D                   Em
And she slams on the breaks
Em                        G
She said I tried to be but I'm not
D                               Em
And could you please collect your things

D
I don't wanna be cold I don't wanna be cruel
                Em
But I gotta find more than what's happening with you
          C
If you'd - open up the door

          G
She said - while you were sleeping
D
I was listening to the radio
                                 Em
And wondering what you're dreaming when
                      (D)    C
It came to mind that I didn’t care

              G
So I thought - hell if it's over
D
I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve
                           C
Are you listening - can you hear me
            Em
Have you forgotten

Em             G             D              Em


Em                       G
Just three miles from the rest stop
D                        Em
And my mouth's too dry to rage
Em                            G
The light was shining from the radio
D                     Em
I could barely see her face
D
But she knew all the words that I never had said
            Em
She knew the crumpled-up promise of this
                          C
Broken down man - and as I opened up the door

G
She said - while you were sleeping
D
I was listening to the radio
                                 Em
And wondering what you're dreaming when
                       (D)   C
It came to mind that I didn’t care


              G
So I thought - hell if it's over
D
I had better end it quick or I could lose my nerve
                           C
Are you listening - can you hear me
           Em
Have you forgotten
