[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.

[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 'cross 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.

[Verse 3]Cmaj7 G*
You see my old man's got a problem:
Em7 Dadd11
He live with the bottle, thats 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.

[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.

[Chorus]Em Dadd11 C
I remember when we were driving, driving in your car,

Em7 Dadd11
And 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

Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.
