Author/Artist: American Hi-Fi
Title: Built for Speed
Album: The Art of Losing
Transcribed by: Andrew Biles

This is personally my favorite song off the new album.  There are a couple of
parts missing from this song, mainly for the second guitar, and you'll have to
work out strumming patterns every now and then.  The solo should be quite
accurate, it just started to bore me by the end and I've added lyrics and a kind
of order at the bottom of the tab. please make corrections if you notice
something wrong with the tab, thanks.

Lyrics:

She's on Fire, Like a rocket
shining out of control
Try to stop her but you just don't
know, how to keep it inside
Can you, keep on turning out or I'll
wait for my turn
Same old story cos you never learn
how to make it in time

She don't know, what she does to me
The girl got soul, and rhythm inbetween
I crash and burn, like every other time
she's my little rock-n-roll queen
I got a girl like that
my baby's built for speed

Shoot to spill, built to spill
Got a mind? take your pills
but you're never gonna get to
what thrills, all of us inside
can you, put the pedal to the metal
this time? you gotta wanna like I want 
it alright, we gotta start tonight
