Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

F
I'm workin' on my rewrite, that's right

Bb               F
Gonna change the ending

Bb              F
Throw away the title

    Bb             F
And toss it in the trash

      Bb           F
Every minute after midnight

       Bb             F
I been workin' at the car wash

I consider it my day job

            Bb           F
'Cause it's really not a pay job

    Bb             F
But that's where I am

     Bb             F
Everybody says "The old guy

    Bb             F
Workin' at the car wash?"

Hasn't got a brain cell left

Bb        F
Since Vietnam

Help me, help me

     Bb            F
I'll eliminate the pages

          Bb            F
Where the father has a breakdown

       Bb               F
And he has to leave the family

       Bb              F
But he really meant no harm

      Bb           F
Gonna substitute a car chase

      Bb               F
And a race across the rooftops

          Bb               F
Where the father saves the children

       Bb                F
And he holds them in his arms

I said

Help me, help me

F
Help me, help me
