A|E|A|E:

♫ Verse:
A                  E
That's life in the big city
    A                     E
You beg for mercy but you get no pity
A             E
Low-life zero mentality
 A                    E
Vandalized victims of depravity
  A                   E
A Fast food, take-out mentality
          A
Where the dogs eat the dogs
        E
And the innocent bleed
A                           E
The city can't cope and the cops don't care
        A
There's fear in the streets
           E
And it's a jungle out there

♫ Pre-Chorus:
E
I don't want it, don't want it
E
Don't want it, don't want it

♫ Chorus:
D                 A
Somebody stole my car
D                 A
Somebody stole my automobile
D                             A
They ripped off the radio and sold the wheels
            C
And if it's happened to you
         G
Then you know how I feel
G
Somebody stole my car

♫ Solo:

♫ Chorus:
D                 A
Somebody stole my car
D                   A
I left it parked outside of my home
         D             A
It had a new A/C and a cellular phone
           C
And I'm as sick as a dog
               G
'Cos I'm still paying off the loan
G
Somebody stole my car

♫ Solo:

♫ Verse:
A                  E
That's life in the metropolis
A                    E
Living on credit and overdrawn interest
A                      E
Craving commercialized commodities
A                      E
Everything advertised, stirring up greed
A       D E
Everyday I wonder why
A       D E
Everyday I can't get away
    A                  E
The city's in debt, up past its ears
       A
Yet we still borrow more
           E
And pay it back next year
        A                       E
Now I'm paying for a car that I no longer own
        A                 E
And the next time anybody offers me a loan I'll say

D                 A
Somebody stole my car
D                               A
It's just been cleaned and I've just had it taxed
       D                A
It had brand-new stereo speakers in the back
      C
And I call up the cops
       G
With a panic attack
G
Somebody stole my car

Somebody stole my car
D                               A
I bet they're riding around and running red lights
D                          A
Got chicks in the back and ballin' all night
        C
While I sit at home
        G
Getting more uptight
G
Somebody stole my car

A                E
That life in the metropolis
A                             E
Possessions mean nothing in a world like this
     A                         E
Some punks wanna ride and they see my car
        A
So they take it, shake it
               E
Burn it up and break it
                  A
Hey, that's my car

Somebody stole my car
