Am          C                   G                  D
I got a letter from Maria, you know her English ain't that good
Am                      C            G     G
 But what she meant was easily understood
Am           C            G                D
If I'm gonna keep her,  I better get there quick
               Am                C                  G     G
The thought of her with somebody else just makes me sick

[Chorus]
        C                          G
I never drove two days through the pouring rain
     D                       Am
Just stopping for coffee and gas
        C                     G
I never outrun the law on the interstate
       D                             Am
Didn't know this thing would go that fast
  C                  G
I never been in this deep before
            D            Em      Em
But there's always a first time
C                 D                Am            C  G  D
Then again, I ain't never been the jealous kind

[Interlude]
Am  C  G  D

[Verse 2]
Am                 C       G                 D
Blue lights in the mirror, blue lights in my way
Am               C                 G     G
 But still all I see is her pretty face
          Am               C             G                    D
When they give me that one phone call, I know what it's gonna be
Am                    C                G     G
Maria, would you wait one more day for me?

[Chorus]
        C                          G
I never drove two days through the pouring rain
     D                       Am
Just stopping for coffee and gas
        C                     G
I never outrun the law on the interstate
       D                             Am
Didn't know this thing would go that fast
     C                  G
I've never been in this deep before
            D            Em      Em
But there's always a first time
C                 D                Am            C  G  D
Then again, I ain't never been the jealous kind

[Interlude]
Am  C  G  D

[Chorus]
        C                          G
I never drove two days through the pouring rain
     D                       Am
Just stopping for coffee and gas
        C                     G
I never outrun the law on the interstate
       D                             Am
Didn't know this thing would go that fast
  C                  G
I never been in this deep before
            D            Em      Em
But there's always a first time
C                 D                Am             Am
Then again, I ain't never been the jealous kind
C                 D                Am            C  G  D
Then again, I ain't never been the jealous kind
