Intro:

G D Em7 C (X 2)

Verse 1:
G
It was my mama's Trans Am
D
You know the damn thing barely ran
Em7                   C
But what a getaway dream
G
I felt like such a rebel
D                Em7       C
Driving with the devil on angel wings
G                  D
Had nowhere to be, friends in the backseat
Em                         C
Begging to smoke a cigarette
G

We were lighting up the scene
D
Making turns and memories
Em7                                 C
Swore the best ones hadn't happened yet

Chorus:
G                         D
Now I'm chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7              C
I'm never satisfied
G                 D
Chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7                     C
You don't get that twice
D                       Em7
You never get back that first taste of freedom
C
No matter how hard you try
D                           Em7
When everything's changing, you can't see it
C
Don't grow up 'cause it's a lie
C               G                D C
That first-car feeling never dies

Verse 2:
G
Now it's nine-to-fives and paychecks
D
And bills I haven't paid yet
Em7                C
I got getaway dreams
G
I miss trading friendship bracelets
D
The wind on all our faces
Em7                C
It was all new to me
G
We could park on any street
D
Let it out like therapy
Em7                        C
Before we knew we needed it
G
Too young to feel the time
D
Crossing city lines
Em7                  C
Never to return again

Chorus:
G                         D
Now I'm chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7               C
I'm never satisfied
G                 D
Chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7                     C
You don't get that twice
D                       Em7
You never get back that first taste of freedom
C
No matter how hard you try
D                           Em7
When everything's changing, you can't see it
C
Don't grow up 'cause it's a lie
C               G                D C
That first-car feeling never dies

Bridge:
G D C
Oh, oh
G D C
Ooh, ooh-ooh
                 Em
Just like you'll never be born again
D                  C
All you can say is "remember when"
C                             Em
You'll get a new life, new house
                        C
New job, new ex-boyfriend
D                       Em7
But you never get back that first taste of freedom
C
No matter how hard you try

Chorus:
G                         D
Now I'm chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7              C
I'm never satisfied
G                 D
Chasing down that first-car feeling
Em7                    C
You don't get that twice
D                       Em7
You never get back that first taste of freedom
C
No matter how hard you try
D                           Em7
When everything's changing, you can't see it
C
Don't grow up 'cause it's a lie
C               G                D C
That first-car feeling never dies
