C                    G     Em7                 D  
You got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere 
C                        G      Em7                       D 
Maybe we make a deal,Maybe together we can get somewhere  
C                       G Em7                    D   
Anyplace is better, Starting from zero got nothing to lose  
C                                      G Em7                D 
Maybe we'll make something, But me myself I got nothing to prove

I been working at the convenience store, Managed to save just a little bit of money

We won't have to drive too far, Just 'cross the border and into the city

He says his body's too old for working, I say his body's too young to look like his

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

We gotta make a decision, We leave tonight or live and die this way

                           C9 
I remember we were driving driving in your car  
         G 
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk  
Em 
City lights lay out before us  
D  
And your arm felt nice wrapped'round my shoulder  
C   Em           D 
And I had a feeling that I belonged  
C Em             D                                     C                 D 
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

C                      G Em7                      D 
You got a fast car, And we go cruising to entertain ourselves  
C                  G             Em7                           D 
You still ain't got a job, And I work in a market as a checkout girl  
C                  G                  Em7                        D 
I know things will get better, You'll find work and I'll get promoted  
C                    G                  Em7                       D 
We'll move out of the shelter, Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

You got a fast car, And I got a job that pays all our bills

You stay out drinking late at the bar, See more of your friends than you do of your kids  
C                               G    Em7                                  D 
I'd always hoped for better, Thought maybe together you and me would find it  
C                   G                             Em7                             D 
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere, So take your fast car and keep on driving
