She Offered Me a Ride

Verse 1

Piano and voice

Your party, your house, your new girlfriendShe's the one who found my coatShe said, I love your earringsLike we'd met a hundred timesI guess you told her all about me

Pre-Chorus

I wanted her to be the villainShe didn't even let me

Chorus

She offered me a rideIn your car, my old seatAnd I said, no, I'm goodShe offered me a ride

Verse 2

I walked home in the wrong shoesPast the diner where you kissed meHated her for twenty minutesHated me the other forty

Pre-Chorus

I wanted her to be the villainShe didn't even let me

Chorus

Drums and strings enter

She offered me a rideIn your car, my old seatAnd I said, no, I'm goodShe offered me a ride

Bridge

Building to a raw belt

Why'd you have to pick somebody niceI can't even hate her right

Final Chorus

Full and soaring, then falling back to piano

She offered me a rideIn your car, my old seatAnd I said, no, I'm goodShe offered me a rideShe offered me a rideIn your car, my old seatAnd I said, no, I'm fineShe offered me a ride
