| (Played with a swing beat) |
| | C | F | C | F | C | F | C | F |
| | | | | | Walking on the | water, in a | van | |
| | C | Em | Am | Em | G |
| | Trying to | think of | every | thing I | can |
| | F | G |
| But it's | getting very | late |
| | Em | Am |
| And these | tapes don't sound no | good |
| | F | G |
| And my | body, just don't feel the way I | wish it would |
| I was driving when I heard you call my name |
| It was not like before, not quite the same |
| It's to late to be much good |
| And I might as well confess |
| That I have not got the nerve to borrow cigarettes |
| | C | Em | G |
| | When I'm | almost with you, | music tries to play |
| Whem I'm almost home, I almost hear you say |
| It'll be alright if we could run away |
| (Here, you can either play C F C F, or the following bass fill) |

| These silent things are all my life (???) |
| No one ever tells me when or why |
| Oh but my heart can't seem to tell me |
| What would satisfy my mind |
| So I jump into that van just one more time |
| Solo (C Em Am G Am G Em Am F G) |
| I was driving when I heard you call my name |
| It was not like before, not quite the same |
| Oh but my heart can't seem to tell me |
| What would satisfy my mind |
| So I jump into that van just one more time |
| Chorus (Bass fill played twice) |
