Capo Fret 2

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I want a ticket to anywhere
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Maybe we make a deal
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
Maybe together we can get somewhere
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Anyplace is better
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Maybe we’ll make something
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
Me, myself I’ve got nothing to prove

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I got a plan to get us out of here
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I’ve been working at the convenience store
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
Managed to save just a little bit of money
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Won’t have to drive too far
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Just cross the border and into the city
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You and I can both get jobs
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
And finally see what it means to be living

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
See my old man’s got a problem
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
He live with the bottle, that’s the way it is
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
He says his body’s too old for working
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
His body’s too young to look like his
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
My momma went off and left him
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
She wanted more from life than he could give
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I said, “Somebody’s got to take care of him”
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
So I quit school and that’s what I did

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Is it fast enough so we can fly away
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
We gotta make a decision
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
Leave tonight or live and die this way

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You still ain’t got a job
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I know things will get better
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You’ll find work and I’ll get promoted
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
We’ll move out of the shelter
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I got a job that pays all our bills
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You stay out drinking late at the bar
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I’d always hoped for better
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
I got no plans, I ain’t going nowhere
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
So take your fast car and keep on driving

[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You got a fast car
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
You gotta make a decision
[C] [G] [Am] [Em]
Leave tonight or live and die this way
