[Intro]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11 Bmaj7 Gb
Ebm Dbadd11
[Verse 1]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
And I want a ticket to anywhere
Bmaj7 Gb
Maybe we make a deal
Ebm Dbadd11
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Bmaj7 Gb
Any place is better
Ebm
Starting from zero,
Dbadd11
got nothing to lose
Bmaj7 Gb
Maybe we'll make something
Ebm Dbadd11
Me, myself, I got nothing to prove
[Interlude]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
[Verse 2]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
And I got a plan to get us out of here
Bmaj7 Gb
I've been working at the convenience store
Ebm Dbadd11
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Bmaj7 Gb
Won't have to drive too far
Ebm Dbadd11
Just across the border and into the city
Bmaj7 Gb
And you and I can both get jobs
Ebm Dbadd11
Finally see what it means to be living
[Verse 3]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
See,
Bmaj7 Gb
my old man's got a problem
Ebm
He lives with the bottle,
Dbadd11
that's the way it is
Bmaj7 Gb
He said his body's too old for working
Ebm Dbadd11
His body's too young to look like his
Bmaj7 Gb
So Mama went off and left him
Ebm Dbadd11
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said,
Bmaj7 Gb
somebody's got to take care of him
Ebm Dbadd11
So I quit school and that's what I did
[Interlude]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
[Pre-Chorus]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Bmaj7 Gb
Still gotta make a decision
Ebm Dbadd11
Leave tonight or live and die this way
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11 Badd9
So I remember when we were driving,
driving in your car
[Chorus]
Gb
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
Ebm7
City lights lay out before us
Db
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
Badd9 Ebm7 Db
And I I, had a feeling that I belonged
Badd9 Ebm7 Db Badd9
I I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone,
Dbsus4
be someone
[Interlude]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
[Verse 4]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
We go cruising to entertain ourselves
Bmaj7 Gb
You still ain't got a job
Ebm Dbadd11
So I work in the market as a checkout girl
Bmaj7 Gb
I know things will get better
Ebm Dbadd11
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
Bmaj7 Gb
And we'll move out of the shelter
Ebm Dbadd11
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11 Badd9
So I remember when we were driving,
driving in your car
[Chorus]
Gb
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
Ebm7
City lights lay out before us
Db
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
Badd9 Ebm7 Db
And I I, had a feeling that I belonged
Badd9 Ebm7 Db Badd9
I I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone,
Dbsus4
be someone
[Interlude]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
[Verse 5]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
I got a job that pays all our bills
Bmaj7 Gb
You stay out drinking late at the bar
Ebm Dbadd11
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
Bmaj7 Gb
I'd always hoped for better
Ebm Dbadd11
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
Bmaj7 Gb
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
Ebm Dbadd11 Bmaj7 Gb
Take your fast car and keep on driving
Ebm Dbadd11 Badd9
So I remember when we were driving,
driving in your car
[Chorus]
Gb
Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk
Ebm7
City lights lay out before us
Db
And your arm felt nice wrapped around my shoulder
Badd9 Ebm7 Db
And I I, had a feeling that I belonged
Badd9 Ebm7 Db Badd9
I I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone,
Dbsus4
be someone
[Interlude]
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11 Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
[Outro]
Bmaj7 Gb
You got a fast car
Ebm Dbadd11
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Bmaj7 Gb
Still gotta make a decision
Ebm Dbadd11
Leave tonight or live and die this way
Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11 Bmaj7 Gb Ebm Dbadd11
Bmaj7 Gb
