[Bb] [F] [C]
[Bb] [F] [C]
[Bb] [F] I recall my [Dm] so-called misspent [C] youth
[Bb]
[F] Seems more worthwhile [C] every single day
[Bb] [F] Cruisin' van nines and I got [C] so uncouth
[Bb] [F] All the joys of [Bb] runnin' [C] away
There [Bb] [F] was no speed limit [Dm] on the Nevada [C] State Line
[Bb] The [F] air was red wine [Dm] on those [C] top-down nines
Just [Bb]
[F] you and me, my old [Am] roller [C] skate
Common [Bb] [C] sense [Am] to know our [Bb] ride
[Am] [Gm] [Bb] Sweet [F] old [Bb] racing car [F] of mine
[C] [Dm] Roarin' down that [Gm] broken line
[F] [C] I've [Dm] never been so much [C] alive
[Bb] [F] Too [Bb] [C] [F] fast for [Gm] comfort
[F] Too [G] low to climb
[C] Too [F] young [Bb] to [F] die
[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[C] [Bb] [F] They say a man can't love a [Dm] material [C] thing
[Bb] With [F] aluminum skin and a cast [C]-iron soul
[Bb] But [F] they never heard your aunt [C] John that sing
[Bb] [F] That is peace [Bb] and losing control
[C] [F] Stick your finger, turn up real [C] loud
[Bb] [F] Now we were flirtin' with catastrophe
[C] With [Bb]
[F] you and everything that's not allowed
[C] Life [Bb] [C] didn't come [F] with a [Bb] warranty
[F] With you and me
[Gm] [Bb] Sweet [F] old [Bb] racing [F] car of mine
[C] Roarin' down that [Gm] broken line
[F] [C] I've [Dm] never been so much [C] alive
[Bb] [F] Too [Bb] [C] [Dm] fast [Gm] for comfort
[F] Too [G] low to climb
[F] Too young to die
[C]
[F] [Dm]
[C] There [F]
[Dm] [C] [Bb]
[F] is peace in losing control
[C] [Fm] When [Bb]
[F] I die I don't wanna go [G] to [C] heaven
I
[Bb] [F] just wanna drive my beautiful [C] machine
[Bb] Up [F] north on some Sonoma [C] County road
Jimmy [Bb] [C] Dean, [Am] Stevie [Bb] Queen
[F] All the [Gm] boys be singing to him
[F] Sweet old [Bb] racing car [F] of mine
[C] [Dm] Roarin' down that [Gm] broken line
[F]
[C] I've [Dm] never been so much [C] alive
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] [C] Too [Dm] fast [Gm] for comfort
[F] Too [G] low to climb
[C] [F] Too young [Bb] [F] to die
[Dm] [C] [Bb]
[F] [Dm] Just a little bit [C] too young
[Bb] [F] [Dm] [C]
Too [F] young [Bb] to [F]
