Em        C          D 
You keep pushing me away  
    B                 C 
In spite of what you say 
    A              B 
I found out yesterday  

That I've been wasting all my time 
Trying to make you smile 
Trying to make this seem worth... 

While you've been pushing me around 
In spite of what I do  
Trying to make things good for... 

You take your economy car and your suitcase 
Take your psycho little dogs 
Take it all away 

--- Intro (1x) 

You've been racing through my mind 
You're picking up in speed 
You're driving recklessly 

It's like a car crash happening on my street 
Broken bodies at my feet 
And sirens on the way 

They're too late 
'Cause nobody's going to save us 
We're a rubbernecker's dream 
We're burning gasoline 

Go take your economy car and your suitcase 
Take your psycho little dogs 
Take it all away 

--- Intro (2x) (solo) 

And go 
Go ahead and destroy this 
Better come with an army 
Are you feeling feeling okay baby? 

Na-na-na-na-na-na 

Take your economy car and your suitcase 
Take your psycho little dogs 
Take it all away 

--- Intro (4x)
