Verse 1:
F                                   Am
You just can’t stand the way that I walked out from the wreckage,
F                               Am
Can’t understand the way that I turned myself around.
F                         C
I tried to terminate this war,

With you.
    G
But you won’t let it go,
                              (slide down)
You keep coming back for more.


Pre-Chorus 1:
D
Freedom,
    Em
I’m takin’ it back.
F                      G
I’m outta here, no turnin’ back,
D              Em
In a baby blue Cadillac,
G
Just when I was stallin’.

I heard an angel callin’.


Chorus 1:(With Gusto)
N.C.         F
This is your life,
           Am
You can go anywhere.
          F
You gotta grab the wheel and own it,
             Am
And drive it like you stole it. Roll it!
F
This is your life.
           Am
You can be anything,
          F
You gotta learn to rock and roll it.
          Am
You gotta put the pedal down,
             F                  Am
And drive it like you stole it.
             F                  Am
And drive it like you stole it.


Verse 2:
F
We get stuck in the dirt,
                 Am
And we can’t see where we’re going.
F
We face all kinds of hurt,
        Am
And the friction slows us down.
F                                   C
But I won’t be waiting here for the world to win me gold,
    G
And I’ll leave your dust behind me.

Stranded in the road.


Pre-Chorus 2:
D
Freedom,
    Em
I’m takin’ it back.
F                G
Attitude, I’m givin’ it back,
D              Em
In a baby blue Cadillac,
G
Just when I was stallin’.

I heard an angel callin’.


Chorus 2:(With Gusto)
F
This is your life.
           Am
You can go anywhere,
          F
You gotta grab the wheel and own it.
          Am
You gotta put the pedal down,
N.C.         F                  Am
And drive it like you stole it.
