Driftaway by Motley Crue
Riff 1:
C C/B
Look inside the mirror
Am7 C/G
But I don't know who I see
C C/B
Smoke another cigarrete
Am7 C/G
A smile rolls back the tears
Riff 2:
C C/B
This contradiction seems to be
Am7 D/F#
The story of my life
Riff 3:
F G
A simple man with memories of
C C/B Am7 C/G
Those long lost golden days
F G C
I close my eyes and slowly drift away
Riff 4: Solo 1
Riff 1:
C
Mistakes I've made
C/B Am7
Remind me of the roads
C/B
I shouldn't choose
C C/B
Never comes that easy when
Am7 C/B
There's nothing left to lose
Riff 2:
C C/B
I cant see answers tell me
Am7 D/F#
Why am I so blind?
F G
A tired man, I'll make the best
C C/B Am7 C/B
Of another lonley day
F G
I close my eyes and slowly drift away
Riff 5: Bridge to solo
F Fm
Never thought I'd make it
C
Just by playing my guitar
F
Just a little smile always
Fm C
Shelters me from pain
F G
Every time I start to slide
C C/B Am7 C/G
I wish upon a star
D7
The sun comes up
G C/E G
And dries up all the rain
Riff 6: 12 string solo
Riff 7: solo 2
Riff 3:
F G
I'm an honest man who refuses
C C/B Am7 C/G
Shade on a hot and lonely day
F G C C/B Am7 C/G
I close my eyes and dream my life away
F G C C/B Am7 C/G
Now I know that I can stop the rain
F G C C/B Am7 C/G
Close my eyes and slowly drift away
F G C C/B Am7 C/G
Close my eyes and dream my life away
F G C C/B Am7 C/G
Close my eyes and slowly drift away
F G C
Close my eyes dream my life away.
