Intro 1
(G major) (Csus2) (C major) (Csus2)
(E minor) (Csus2)
Pop (G major) works
Verse 1
in the shop til eight
Mom's on the phone and
she's kind of irate
Sally's doing (D major) sommersaults on the
lawn (Csus2) (C major)
(Csus2) Pop (G major) slams open the front screen door
Just to scare mom
She says, what the hell did you do that for?
He washes his (D major) dirty hands in the (C major) sink
And (G major) things around the table
are kind of rough
(Csus2) Mo m says it's pa
Pa says,
the times are just tough (G major)
And me and sally (D major) don't say
much of nothing at (C major) all
(G major) The garage door light
brightens up the night
Pa (Csus2) always works on cars when he
(C major) gets in a fight (Csus2)
As though he (G major) could figure out that
wo (D major) man by working on that
Old (C major) car
He said a (G major) car can cure any
problem at all
'Cause (Csus2) of looking at all them parts makes
a (C major) fight look so (F major) small (G major)
But I wish he'd just put me and
(D major) sally in the backseat and
Drive (C major) us away
That's when he (G major) sits me down
He says he's gonna teach
me about life
He said, "a (C major) man needs a car (Csus2)
and a boy (C major) needs a (Csus2) bike"
I got my (G major) first taste of freedom
(D major) beneath the light of the (C major) moon
But (Csus2) (F major) if it were (G major) me (F major)
I'd have the (G major) guts (F major) to put to
(G major) test those (C major) bolt (G major) s and (A minor) nuts
And I'd (E minor) ride (C major) (A minor) away (D major) so fast, so (G major) far
Ride away, so fast, so (D major) (C major)
(Csus2) (D major) (G major) far
Put away our tools
We go back inside
(C major) Mom feels left out and now she's
starting (Csus2) to cry (G major)
I wonder if all (D major) girls are crazy (C major) this way
I (G major) wish pops would just get a spine
I said I (C major) know it's kind of small but
you can borrow (Csus2) mine
He (G major) just smiled (D major) and said,
"your mom means well (C major) son" (Csus2)
(G major) Most times are good it's just
some that are lean
But it's love that makes up for
those times in beteween
He got a tear in his eye as he
(D major) took mamma's hand (C major)
Said one day I'd (G major) understand (F major)
But if it were (G major) me (F major)
I'd have (G major) the guts to (F major) put to
(G major) test those (C major) bolts (G major) and (A minor) nuts
And I'd (E minor) ride (C major) (A minor) away (D major) so far, so (E minor) fast
(D major) Ride (C major) (Csus2) (A minor) away (D major) (E minor) so fast so (C major) far
Ride (A minor) (D major) away
