Capo 3rd Fret

Intro: (D) (G) (D) (G)  x 2

(D) My buddy Blake (G) was All-state, with (A) dreams of the NF(D)L.
Jenny McClain had (G) big brains, she (A) got a scholarship to (D) Yale.
(G) Then there was (D) Herschel, (A) who did two comm(D)ercials
And (G) he was gonna (D) be a movie (A) star,
But all I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)
All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)

Had a part time job making chicken for Bob's
At the food court at the mall.
I hauled my uncle's trash, I cut my neighbor's grass
And I raked the leaves in the fall.
My parents, they were stunned how this former lazy bum
Suddenly was workin' so hard.
But all I wanted was a car
All I wanted was a car.

  (A) Yeah when I (G) was six(D)teen
  (A) All (G) of my (D) dreams 
ar(D)ound one thing. (A)
  All I wanted was a (D) car, (D/F#) (G)
  All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)

Solo

When I (Bm) finally got that (A) big hunk of (G) steel,(D) (G) those 4 wheels (D) under(A)neath,
I went (Bm) everywhere (A) in it, (G) broke the speed (D) limit,
And I (Em) even broke in the back(A)seat.

Now when I look outside, sittin' in the drive it blows my mind to see
An SUV and a Sedan, and two kids playing.
I can't believe that they all belong to me.
When I caught their momma's eye in that old thing I used to drive,
I never dreamed it would take me this far.
When all I wanted was a (A) car

  Yeah when I (G) was six(D)teen
  (A) All (G) of my (D) dreams 
ar(D)ound one thing. (A)
  All I wanted was a (D) car, (D/F#) (G)
  All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)

Repeat and Fade Out
