[Eb] [Bb] [Gm] [Bb]
You got a fast car I want it to get to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better Starting from zero got nothing to lose
And maybe we'll make something [Gm] And me, [Bb] myself, I got nothing to [Eb] [Bb] prove
[Gm] [Bb]
You got a fast car [Gm] I got [Bb] a plan to get us out of here
Been working at the convenience store Managed to save us a little bit of money
But won't have to drive too far Just cross the border and into [Eb] the city
[Bb] You and I can both get jobs [Gm] Finally [Bb] see what it means to be a living
You [Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] [Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] see my old [Bb] man's got a [Gm] problem Live with [Bb] a bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working [Gm] His body's too [Bb] young to look [Eb] like his

The speed's too fast, felt like I [Gm] was drunk Sitting last night out before a [F] singer

We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house and live in the [Eb] [Bb] suburbs
