i got a car
( capo on 2 )
intro . : | ( D ) | ( G ) | ( Bm ) | ( A )
( verse 1 )
she was ( D ) leanin’ on a rail in a cotton dress , ( G ) summer tanned pretty little perfect mess
with A ( Bm ) story that could only be anybody’s ( A ) guess
and i was ( D ) thinkin’ that i probably didn’t stand a chance , but i ( G ) rolled up my
sleeves , walked up and i said
hey ( Bm ) no , i don’t know you , but i’d ( A ) kinda like A ( G ) shot ( A )
she said , i ( Bm ) saw you comin’ over , i al – ( A ) ready thought it over and ( G ) ok , so now ( A ) what
( chorus )
and i said , well ( D ) i got a car , she said , there’s something at ( G ) least it’s a start , i
said it’s better than nothing
i ( Bm ) ain’t in no hurry but i’m ready when you ( A ) are
and she said , ( D ) where do you think all this is goin’ , ( G ) i said , there ain’t no way of knowin’
i ( Bm ) guess i hadn’t ( A ) thought it through that ( G ) far , ( A ) but i got A ( D ) car
( verse 2 )
so , we ( D ) let the wheels turn and the windows down , we ( G ) let ourselves go all the way
through town
she ( Bm ) never said stop and i never asked her ( A ) why
we drove ( D ) into the night , when outta nowhere , she said , i’d ( G ) give anything to never
go back there
and i ( Bm ) kinda wish this ( A ) day would never end ( G ) ( A )
she said , ( Bm ) i could use a change but ( A ) i don’t even ( G ) know where to be – ( A ) gin
( chorus )
and i said , well ( D ) i got a car , she said , there’s something at ( G ) least it’s a start , i
said , it’s better than nothing
i ( Bm ) ain’t in no hurry but i’m ready when you ( A ) are
and she said , ( D ) where do you think all this is goin’ , ( G ) i said , there ain’t no way of knowin’
i ( Bm ) really hadn’t ( A ) thought it through that ( G ) far ( A )
and ( Bm ) i can’t promise ( A ) you the moon and ( G ) stars , ( A ) but i got a car
| ( A ) ( D ) ( A ) ( D ) ( A ) ( D ) |
( bridge )
we got ( G ) lost in the miles , lost track of the days , ’til we ( D ) finally found A
stoppin’ place
when the ( Bm ) doctor’s said , you ( A ) know what’s on the way? ( G )
and we found ourselves in a little white house , one ( D ) sunday morning , rain pourin’ down
she ( Bm ) said , i think it’s ( A ) time but ( G ) all the lines are out ( A )
and her ( Bm ) eyes teared up and ( A ) she said , what are ( G ) we gonna do ( A ) now?
( chorus )
and i said , well ( D ) i got a car , she said , there’s something , you ( G ) think it’ll start ,
i said , it’s already runninf
got your ( Bm ) things in the back and i’m ready when you ( A ) are
she said , are you ( D ) sure it’ll get us where we’re goin’? ( G ) i said , if there’s one
thing i know girl
( Bm ) it’s ( A ) gotten us this ( G ) far ( A )
and i ( Bm ) don’t mean to hurry but i’m ( A ) ready when you ( G ) are
