C#m BI want a ticket to anywhere.

Amaj7 EMaybe we make a deal,

C#m BMaybe together we can get somewhere.

Amaj7 EAny place is better.

C#m BStarting from zero, got nothing to lose.

Amaj7 EMaybe we'll make something,

C#m BMe myself, I got nothing to prove.

Amaj7 E C#m

Amaj7 EYou got a fast car.

C#m BI got a plan to get us out of here:

Amaj7 EI been working at the convenience store,

C#m BManaged to save just a little bit of money.

Amaj7 EWon't have to drive too far

C#m BJust 'cross the border and into the city,

Amaj7 EYou and I can both get jobs

C#m BAnd finally see what it means to be living.

Amaj7 E C#m

Amaj7 EYou see, my old man's got a problem:

C#m BHe live with the bottle, that’s the way it is.

Amaj7 EHe says his body's too old for working,

C#m BHis body's too young to look like his.

Amaj7 E C#m BMy mama went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,

Amaj7 EI said, "Somebody's got to take care of him."

C#m BSo I quit school and that's what I did.

Amaj7 E C#m

Amaj7 EYou got a fast car.

C#m BBut is it fast enough so we can fly away?

Amaj7 EWe gotta make a decision:

C#m BLeave tonight or live and die this way.

Amaj7 E C#m

C#m A C#m A So I remember when: we were driving, driving in your car,

C#m AThe speed so fast I felt like I was drunk,

C#m ACity lights lay out before us

C#m AAnd your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder.

A C#m BAnd I had a feeling that I belonged

A C#m B C#m A C#mAnd I had a feeling I could -- be someone, be someone, be someone.

Amaj7 E C#m

Amaj7 EYou got a fast car.

C#m BAnd we go cruising to entertain ourselves;

Amaj7 Eyou still ain't got a job

C#m BAnd I work in a market as a checkout girl.

Amaj7 EI know things will get better:

C#m BYou'll find work and I'll get promoted,

Amaj7 EWe'll move out of the shelter

C#m BBuy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.

Amaj7 EYou stay out drinking late at the bar,

C#m BYou see more your friends than you do your kids.

C#m BThought maybe together you and me would find it,

Amaj7 EI got no plans I ain't going nowhere,

C#m Bso take your fast car and keep on driving.
