Letra Driving With One Hand On The Wheel de Aimee Mann original

F#m E
You asked me to dinner

You brought me stuff
E B
Now what do I make of that
F#m B
You made me an offer
E A
I called your bluff
E B
Now you're an amnesiac

A E B
Driving with one hand on the wheel
A E B
Ordering luck with every meal
A E
Feeding on hope again never mind how
B
Small a portion

Verse 2:

I said like we do F#m E
Like we'd like to think B F#m
I'll take care of myself E B
And who would've thought that F#m B
Initial drink E A
Would clear an entire shelf E B

Driving with one hand on the wheel A E B
Ordering luck with every meal A E B
Feeding on hope again never mind how A E
Small a portion B

Bridge:

A E B
You should look at it realistically
A E B
I know you couldn't be in love with me

You sat there as dumb F#m E
As a dog or cat B F#m
Just hoping it's for the best E B
As if anything ever F#m B
Comes from that E A
Except an appalling mess E B

Chorus

Driving with one hand on the wheel A E B
Ordering luck with every meal A E B
Feeding on hope again never mind how A E
Small a portion B

Verse 4

Now you didn't bank F#m E
On the alchemy B F#m
That flattery turns to love E B (possibly could be)
But you took that obstructions F#m B Cause with top-heavy structures
Will always be E A There'll always be
The danger of falling off E B The danger of falling off

Coda

Driving with one hand on the wheel A E B
Not knowing how or what to feel A E B
You only knew that it was enough to be A E
Feeling something B
