E minorEm 
D MajorD x4
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You got a fast car.
E minorEm D MajorD
I want a ticket to anywhere.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
Maybe we make a deal,
E minorEm D MajorD
Maybe together we can get somewhere.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
Any place is better.
E minorEm D MajorD
Starting from zero, got nothing to lose.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
Maybe we'll make something,
E minorEm D MajorD
Me myself, I got nothing to prove.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You got a fast car.
E minorEm D MajorD
I got a plan to get us out of here:
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
I been working at the convenience store,
E minorEm D MajorD
Managed to save just a little bit of money.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
Won't have to drive too far
E minorEm D MajorD
Just 'cross the border and into the city,
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You and I can both get jobs
E minorEm D MajorD
And finally see what it means to be living.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You see, my old man's got a problem:
E minorEm D MajorD
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
He says his body's too old for working,
E minorEm D MajorD
His body's too young to look like his.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD
My mama went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
I said, "Somebody's got to take care of him."
E minorEm D MajorD
So I quit school and that's what I did.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You got a fast car.
E minorEm D MajorD
But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
We gotta make a decision:
E minorEm D MajorD
Leave tonight or live and die this way.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
G+G E minorEm D MajorD 
C majorC G+G
So remember when: we were driving, driving in your car,
C majorC G+G
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,
E minorEm C majorC
City lights lay out before us
E minorEm D MajorD
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
And I had a feeling that I belonged
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD E minorEm G+G E minorEm
And I had a feeling I could -- be someone, be someone, be someone.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You got a fast car.
E minorEm D MajorD
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves;
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
you still ain't got a job
E minorEm D MajorD
And I work in a market as a checkout girl.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
I know things will get better:
E minorEm D MajorD
You'll find work and I'll get promoted,
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
We'll move out of the shelter
E minorEm D MajorD
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
G+G E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
So remember when: we were driving, driving in your car,
C majorC G+G
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,
E minorEm C majorC

E minorEm D MajorD
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
And I had a feeling that I belonged
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD E minorEm G+G E minorEm
And I had a feeling I could -- be someone, be someone, be someone.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G E minorEm D MajorD X2
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You got a fast car.
E minorEm D MajorD
And I got a job that pays all our bills.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
You stay out drinking late at the bar,
E minorEm D MajorD
You see more your friends than you do your kids.
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
I'd always hoped for better,
E minorEm D MajorD
Thought maybe together you and me would find it,
Cmaj7Cmaj7 G+G
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere,
E minorEm D MajorD
so take your fast car and keep on driving.
