Verse: 
 A              E       E         Amaj7       Amaj7 
Walked to the driveway, opened the door to the car 
            B                              A 
Turned the key, found your future in that pedal on the floor 

               E     E             Amaj7 
Hands on the wheel, eyes straight ahead 
Amaj7                B 
 I won't be in that rear view, oh tomorrow 
              A 
Where you're going when you get there 


Pre-Chorus 
           B 
Let your wheels roll 
           B 
Let your wheels roll 
          Amaj7                  A    A 
Let your heartbreak beat to the radio 


Chorus: 
 A                 E 
This is where the past is the past 
                    A 
Where the meant-to-be's ain't meant to last 
            B                                Amaj7           A 
Where the "maybe we could work it out" turns into "maybe we can't" 

                   E                              Amaj7               A 
This is where the memories we missed are catching dust in a picture frame 
           B                B                 A 
Where the hopin' turns to knowin' that there ain't no going back 
 A                 E          Amaj7   A  B  B  A 
This is where the past is the past 


Verse: 
 A                    E 
I'll be painting the bedroom 
                  Amaj7 
I'll be working a lot 
                   B 
Boxing up all the used to be's 
                        A 
Forgetting things 'til it's all been forgot 


Pre-Chorus 
         B 
Letting you go 
         B 
Letting you go 
        Amaj7                  A    A 
Let my heartbreak beat to the radio 


Chorus: 
 A                 E 
This is where the past is the past 
                    A 
Where the meant-to-be's ain't meant to last 
            B                                Amaj7           A 
Where the "maybe we could work it out" turns into "maybe we can't" 

                   E                              Amaj7               A 
This is where the memories we missed are catching dust in a picture frame 
           B                B                 A 
Where the hopin' turns to knowin' that there ain''t no going back 
 A                 E          Amaj7   A  B  B  A  A 
This is where the past is the past 


BREAK: 
      B                              A 
Only time can say what we're taking from it 
    B                                        A 
We say goodbye like it helps but we know it doesn't 
            B                                   A 
Yeah, we thought it was but in the end it just wasn't 


Pre-Chorus 
           B 
Let your wheels roll 
           B 
Let your wheels roll 
           B 
Let your wheels roll 
           B 
Let your wheels roll
