Chords for Tracy Chapman - Fast Car (live) (& lyrics on description)

_ I _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [D] want [A] to find a spot.
I want a ticket to anywhere.
Maybe we make a deal.
[E]
Maybe together we can get [D] somewhere.
[A] Any place is better.
_ [E]
Starting from zero, got nothing to lose.
[A] Maybe we'll make something. _
Me, myself, got nothing to [D] prove.
[A] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [D] [A] You never ask.
I [E]
got a plan to get us out of here.
Been [A] working at the convenience store.
[E] Managed to save just a little bit of [A] money.
Won't have to drive too far.
[F#m] Just cross the border and [A] into the city.
You and I can both get jobs.
Finally see what it means to be living.
_ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [D] See, [A] my old man's got a problem.
[E]
Yeah, but the bottle, that's the way [A] it is.
He says, but it's too old for working.
He says, but it's too young to look like [B] his.
My mama went [A] off and left him.
[E] She wanted more from life than he could give.
I say, [A] somebody's got to take care of him.
So I [E] quit school, that's what I [D] did.
[A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [D] You [A] never ask.
So fast enough so we can fly away.
We gotta make a decision. _
[E] Leave tonight or live and die this [A] way. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now remember when we [D] were drivers.
I banged in your car.
[A] Skied too fast, it felt like I was drunk.
[F#m] Sitting last day, I proposed.
[E] Your arm felt nice, I felt it around my shoulder.
[D] I [F#m] had [E] a feeling that I belonged.
_ I had a feeling I could be someone.
[D] Be someone.
[E] Be someone.
_ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ [E] _ _ [A] You never ask.
[F#m] We go [E] cruising, entertain ourselves.
Still [A] ain't got a job.
I [E] work in the market as a checkout girl.
I know [A] things will get better.
You'll [E] find work and I'll get [A] promoted.
We'll move [A] out of the shelter.
Buy a big [E] house and live in the [D] suburbs. _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [E] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ [F#m] _ Now [D] remember when we were drivers.
I banged in your car.
[A] Skied too fast, it felt like I [F#m] was drunk.
Sitting last day, I [E] proposed.
Your arm felt nice, I felt it around my [D] shoulder.
I had [F#m]
a [E] feeling that I belonged.
[D] I [F#] had [E] a feeling I could be [D] someone.
Be [E] someone.
Be [D] someone.
_ [A] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [F#m] _ [E] _ _ [D] You [A] never ask.
I got a job that pays all our bills.
Stay out drinking, date at the bar.
I'm [F#m] all your [E] friends and you do your kids.
I [A] know it's hopeful, but maybe [E] together you and me find it.
I got no [A] plans, I ain't going nowhere.
Take your best [E] car and go on [D] driving.
_ [A] _
_ [F#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _
[F#m] _ [E] Now remember [D] when we were drivers.
