Driving Home With Black Tonight

Modern System 4...Nf6 5.c3 · sung from Black's side

Verse 1

His bishop sits on c4 tonight,

No hurry, love, the snow is white,

Pawn to d6, I castle short, 5...d6 6.0-0 0-0

He dreams of d4, my e5 holds court.

Chorus

Pawn to d6, bishop back to b6, 5...d6 6.0-0 0-0 7.Re1 Bb6

Pawn to h6, knight to e7, 8.h3 h6 9.Nbd2 Ne7

My bishop eyes f2, slow and sweet,

Driving home with Black, it's Christmas week.

Verse 2

Knight to g6, bishop to e6, 10.Bb3 Ng6 11.Nf1 Be6

The d5 break is my road home,

But never rush that d-pawn early,

Queens stay on, we're never alone.

Chorus

Pawn to d6, bishop back to b6, 5...d6 6.0-0 0-0 7.Re1 Bb6

Pawn to h6, knight to e7, 8.h3 h6 9.Nbd2 Ne7

My bishop eyes f2, slow and sweet,

Driving home with Black, it's Christmas week.
