[VERSE 1] (Drums, Bass)
NC                (F#m)
I've been drivin' all night,
(
My hand's wet 

on the wheel.
(
There's a voic

e in my head,
(
That drives my

 heel.
(
It's my baby c

allin',
(
Says, "I need 

you here."
(
And it's a hal

f past four,
(
And I'm shifti

ng gear.


[PRE-CHORUS 1]

When she is lo

nely,
            
And the longin

              
g gets too muc

  
h.

She sends a ca

ble,
            
Coming in from

  
 above.
           
Don't need a p

        
hone at all.


[CHORUS 1]
           
We've got a th

We've got a wa

(
The road has g

(
And I'm speedi

[PRE-CHORUS 2]

When I get lon

And I'm sure I

She sends her

Comin' in from

Don't need a l

Notes.
1. During 1973–74, when "Radar Love" was a hit, they had Kiss and Aerosmith as their
opening act.
2. On October 10, 2011, at the Historical Museum of The Hague, PostNL presented the
first postage stamp with music. This stamp was issued in honour of the 50th anniversary of
the legendary Dutch band Golden Earring. When a smartphone with a special app is held up 
to the music stamp, Golden Earring’s “Radar Love” plays.
