G C9
G
Pop works in the shop til eight
C9
Mom's on the phone and she's kind of irate
G D C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
Sally's doing sommersaults on the lawn
G
Pop slams open the front screen door
C9
Just to scare mom
She says, "What the hell did you do that for?"
G D C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
He washes his dirty hands in the sink
G
And things around the table are kind of rough
C9
Mom says it's pa
Pa says, "Times are just tough"
G D C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
Me and Sally don't say much of nothing at all
G
The garage door light brightens up the night
C9
Pa always works on cars when he gets in a fight
G D
As though he could figure out that woman by working on that
C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
old car
G
He said a car can cure any problem at all
C9
Cause seeing all those parts makes a fight look so small
G D
But I wish he'd put me and Sally in the backseat and
C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
drive us away
G
That's when he sits me down he said he's gonna teach me about life
C9
He said, "A man needs a car and a boy needs a bike"
G D
I got my first taste of freedom
C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
beneath the light of the moon
F G
But if it were me
F G
I'd have the guts
F G C Cmaj7 Am
I'd put to test those bolts and nuts
Em Am
And I'd Ride
C D G
Away so fast, so far
G
Put away our tools
We go back inside
C9
Mom feels left out and now she's starting to cry
G D C Cadd9 C Cmaj7
I wonder if all girls are crazy this way
G
I wish pops would just get a spine
C9
I said I know it's little but you can borrow mine
G D C Cmaj7 Cadd9 C
He just smiles and says, "Your mom means well, son"
G
Most times are good it's just some that are lame
C9
But love makes up for those times in beteween
G D C Cadd9
He got a tear in his eye as he took mamma's hand
C Cmaj7 G
said one day I'd understand
F G
But if it were me
F G
I'd have the guts
F G C Cmaj7 Am
I'd put to test those bolts and nuts
Em Am
And I'd Ride
C D Em
Away so fast, so far
Am C D Em
Ride Away so fast so far
Am C D
Ride Away
