Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

I’ve got a car that’s always stuck in the last gear.

 It’s starts and it goes if you leave it alone but you can’t steer.

Taking it out on a Sunday drive on the back roads

 And it waits till I’m far away from home and the sun is getting low

Chorus 2

 And wouldn’t you know it, she’s breaking down again

Pulling her over onto the shoulder, letting her under my skin

Verse 2

I’ve got a woman that I haven’t seen for a good year

 She’s got a new job, yeah I love her a lot but she ain’t here.

We’ve got a system and she’s got it all worked out

 But there’s something missing that she’s forgetting that she can’t live

 without

(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 3

(repeat verse progression)

I’ve got a car, it looks real good with the top down

But it lost a tire and caught on fire in the last town

I’ve got a girl who’s drying her eyes with a haiku

So I’m hitching a ride down 35, gotta be there by afternoon

(Repeat Chorus)
