Em7 = Em
Em7/B = B

The simplification probably won't work on a guitar, but maybe it will.

Anyway, here is the COMPLETE AND UNBM PLIFIED VERB ON OF THE SONG

TUNE YOUR GUITAR C WN A SEE TONE (though I don't, and it sounds fine.)

Intro:

Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D

Em7
I know what you want
         Em7/B
I wanna take you to a midnight show tonight
   Em7
If you can keep a secret
           Em7/B
I've got a blanket in the backseat on my mind,
      C                 Bm               Em7
And a little place that sits beneath the sky.

    C                  Bm
She turned her face to speak,
           D 
But no one heard her cry.
-mute-------  Em7    Em7/B
Drive faster, boy-----
             Em7/A Em/G  Em7/D
Drive faster, boy-----Yeah--

Em7
I know there's a hope.
                 Em7/B
There's too many people trying to help me cope.
             Em7
You've got a real short skirt,
        Em7/B
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah, yeah.
Em7
We were just in time,
              Em7/B
Let me take a little more off your mind.
        Em7
There's something in my head, 
Somewhere in the back said:
Em7/B
We were just a good thing, we were such a good thing.

C            Bm           Em7
Make it go away without a word.
    C                 Bm
But promise me you'll stay,
              D
and fix these things I've hurt.
-mute strings-----  Em7  Em7/B
Oh make it go away, oh----.
             Em7/G Em/G   Em7/D
Drive faster, boy----, yeah, oh no,

Solo:

Em7 - Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/B - Em7/A - Em7/A - Em/G - Em/D

  C                   Bm            Em7
A crashing tide can't hide a guilty girl.
     C                   Bm                   Em7
With jealous hearts that start with gloss and curls.
  C              Bm                  Am
I took my baby's breath, beneath the chandelier.
            G
Of stars in atmosphere,
                D/F#       D                Em7  Em7/B
And watched her disappear, into the midnight show----

        Em7/A                     Em/G        Em7/D
A-faster, a-faster, a-faster, a-faster, faster, a-faster,
   Em7
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,
Em7/B
No, no, no, no, no.
   Em7/A
If you can keep a secret,
     Em/G            Em7/D             Em7 - Em7/B - Em7/A
Well baby I can keep, you can keep a secret.
  Em/G                    Em7/D           Em7 - Em7/B
If you can keep a secret, I can keep a secret.
   Em7/A
If you can keep a secret,
     Em/G             Em7/D             Em7
Well baby I can keep, you can keep a secret.
