    Emaj9        E             Emaj9 E
I’m driving home for Christmas.
            Amaj
Oh, I can’t wait

To see those faces.

Top to toe in tailbacks.
          Amaj           A6    Amaj A6
Oh, I got red lights all around,

But soon there’ll be a freeway,
  Emaj9 E
Yeah,
       Amaj    A6          Amaj A6
Get my feet on holy ground.

        G#m7     C#m7
   So I sing for you,
F#m7      Badd11    B/A   G#m7
   Though you can’t hear me
              C#m7
   When I get through,
F#m7   Badd11   B/A   G#m7
   And feel you near me
   C#m7    C#m7/B A6 A6/G#
   Driving in my car,
        F#m7    B7
   I am driving home
