Cmaj7          G

You got a fast car.

Em                 D

I want a ticket to anywhere.

Cmaj7           G

Maybe we make a deal,

Em                    D

Maybe together we can get somewhere.

Cmaj7        G

Any place is better.

Em                      D

Starting from zero, got nothing to lose.

Cmaj7            G

Maybe we'll make something,

Em               D

Me myself, I got nothing to prove.

00:51:00  01:18:00

Cmaj7          G

You got a fast car.

Em              D

I got a plan to get us out of here:

Cmaj7                 G

I been working at the convenience store,

Em                     D

Managed to save just a little bit of money.

Cmaj7                   G

Won't have to drive too far

Em                         D

Just 'cross the border and into the city, 

Cmaj7         G

You and I can both get jobs

    Em                  D

And finally see what it means to be living.

Cmaj7 G  Em D

         Cmaj7              G

You see, my old man's got a problem:

   Em                               D

He live with the bottle, that’s the way it is.

   Cmaj7                       G

He says his body's too old for working,

    Em                  D

His body's too young to look like his.

   Cmaj7             G             Em                         D

My mama went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,

         Cmaj7                  G

I said, "Somebody's got to take care of him."

   Em                       D

So I quit school and that's what I did.

Cmaj7 G  Em D

Cmaj7 G  Em D

01:47:00 02:03:00

Cmaj7          G

You got a fast car.

          Em                    D

But is it fast enough so we can fly away?

Cmaj7             G

We gotta make a decision:

Em                        D

Leave tonight or live and die this way.

                            C                G

So I remember when: we were driving, driving in your car,

    C                         G

The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,

Em              C

City lights lay out before us

         Em                     D

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder. 

    C Em      D

And I   had a feeling that I belonged

    C Em      D                  Em          C           Em

And I   had a feeling I could -- be someone, be someone, be someone.

    Em                     D

And we go cruising to entertain ourselves;

Cmaj7                 G

you still ain't got a job

      Em                    D

And I work in a market as a checkout girl.

Cmaj7                  G

I know things will get better:

Em                   D

You'll find work and I'll get promoted, 

Cmaj7                 G

We'll move out of the shelter

Em                     D

Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.

    Em               D

And I got a job that pays all our bills.

Cmaj7                 G

You stay out drinking late at the bar,

        Em                         D

You see more your friends than you do your kids.

Cmaj7                G

I'd always hoped for better,

Em                     D

Thought maybe together you and me would find it,

Cmaj7                  G

I got no plans I ain't going nowhere,

   Em                     D

so take your fast car and keep on driving.
