Saw a slight distraction standin' by the road..

she was smilin' there, yellow in her hair.

Cruisin' on thru the junction, I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound,
D#                                  G#
noticin' peculiar function, I ain't no roller coaster, slow me down.
D#                        C#                  G#
I turned away to see her..whoa! she caught my eye..
C#                                 A#
but I was rollin' down, movin' too fast.
D#                                     D#7
Do you wanna, she was thinkin', can it last?
