[Intro]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x4
 
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7          G*
You got a fast car.
Em7                 Dadd11
I want a ticket to anywhere.
Cmaj7           G*
Maybe we make a deal,
Em7                    Dadd11
Maybe together we can get somewhere.
Cmaj7             G*
Any place is better.
Em7                      Dadd11
Starting from zero, got nothing to lose.
Cmaj7                 G*
Maybe we'll make something,
Em7               Dadd11
Me myself, I got nothing to prove.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x2
 
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7          G*
You got a fast car
Em7                 Dadd11
I got a plan to get us out of here:
Cmaj7           G*
I been working at the convenience store,
Em7                 Dadd11
Managed to save just a little bit of money.
Cmaj7          G*
Wont't have to drive too far
Em7                 Dadd11
Just across the border and into the city,
Cmaj7          G*
You and I can both get jobs
Em7                 Dadd11
And finally see what it means to be living.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x2
 
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7          G*
You see my old man's got a problem:
Em7                 Dadd11
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is.
Cmaj7          G*
He says his body's too old for working,
Em7                 Dadd11
His body's too young to look like his.
Cmaj7          G*
My mama went off and left him,
Em7                     Dadd11
she wanted more from life than he could give,
Cmaj7               G*
I said, "Somebody's got to take care of him."
Em7                Dadd11
So I quit school and that's what I did.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x2
 
[Verse 4]
Cmaj7  G*
You got a fast car
Em7  Dadd11
But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Cmaj7  G*
We gotta make a decision:
Em7  Dadd11
Leave tonight or live and die this way.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  Cmaj7  G*
 
[Chorus]
Em    Dadd11              C
 I remember when we were driving, driving in your car,
     G
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,
Em7
  City lights lay out before us
          D
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.
    C   Em7      D
And I_____ had a feeling that I belonged
    C   Em7      D                           C         D
And I_____ had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x2
 
[Verse 5]
Cmaj7  G*
You got a fast car
 Em7  Dadd11
And we go cruising to entertain ourelves;
Cmaj7  G*
You still ain't got a job
 Em7  Dadd11
And I work in a market as a checkout girl.
Cmaj7  G*
I know things will get better:
 Em7  Dadd11
You'll find work and I'll get promoted,
Cmaj7  G*
We'll move out of the shelter
 Em7  Dadd11
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  Cmaj7  G*
 
[Chorus]
Em    Dadd11              C
 I remember when we were driving, driving in your car,
     G
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,
Em7
  City lights lay out before us
          D
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.
    C   Em7      D
And I_____ had a feeling that I belonged
    C   Em7      D                           C         D
And I_____ had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  x2
 
[Verse 6]
Cmaj7  G*
You got a fast car
Em7  Dadd11
And I got a job that pays all our bills.
Cmaj7  G*
You stay out drinking late at the bar,
Em7  Dadd11
See more your friends than you do your kids.
Cmaj7  G*
I'd always hoped for better,
Em7  Dadd11
Thought maybe together you and me would find it,
Cmaj7  G*
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere,
Em7  Dadd11
so take your fast car and keep on driving.
 
[Instrumental]
Cmaj7  G*  Em7  Dadd11  Cmaj7  G*
 
[Chorus]
Em    Dadd11              C
 I remember when we were driving, driving in your car,
     G
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,
Em7
  City lights lay out before us
          D
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.
    C   Em7      D
And I_____ had a feeling that I belonged
    C   Em7      D                           C         D
And I_____ had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone.

[Verse 7]
Cmaj7  G*
You got a fast car
Em7  Dadd11
But is it fast enough so you can fly away?
Cmaj7  G*
You gotta make a decision:
Em7  Dadd11
Leave tonight or live and die this way.
