G Pop works in the shop til eight
MC9om's on the phone and she's kind of irate
G Sally's doingD sommersaults on the lCawn Cadd9 C Cmaj7
G Pop slams open the front screen door
JC9ust to scare mom
She says, "What the hell did you do that for?"
G He washes hisD dirty handsC in the sink Cadd9 C Cmaj7
G And things around the table are kind of rough
C9Mom says it's pa
Pa says, "Times are just tough"
G Me and Sally don't say mDuch of nothing at alCl Cadd9 C Cmaj7
G The garage door light brightens up the night
Pa C9always works on cars when he gets in a fight
G As though he could figure out that wDoman by working on that
old cCar Cadd9 C Cmaj7
G He said a car can cure any problem at all
Cause sC9eeing all those parts makes a fight look so small
G But I wish he'd put me and SDally in the backseat and
drCive us away Cadd9 C Cmaj7
That's when he sGits me down he said he's gonna teach me about life
He said, "A mC9an needs a car and a boy needs a bike"
I got my fGirst taste of freedom D
beneath the light of the mCoon Cadd9 C Cmaj7
F But if it were mGe
F I'd have the gGuts
F I'd put to tGest those bColts Cmaj7 and nAmuts
And I'd EmRideAm
AwCay D so fast, so fGar
G Put away our tools
We go back inside
MC9om feels left out and now she's starting to cry
G I wonder if all girlsD are crazy this wCay Cadd9 C Cmaj7
G I wish pops would just get a spine
I said I knC9ow it's little but you can borrow mine
G He just smiles and says,D "Your mom means wCell, sCmaj7on" Cadd9 C
G Most times are good it's just some that are lame
But lC9ove makes up for those times in beteween
He got a tGear in his eye as he tDook mamma's hCand Cadd9
C said one dCmaj7ay I'd understGand
F But if it were mGe
F I'd have the gGuts
F I'd put to tGest those bColts Cmaj7 and nAmuts
And I'd EmRide Am
AwCay D so fast, so fEmar
RiAmde AwCay D so fast so fEmar
RiAmde AwCay D
(end on Em with upward strum)
