I Woke Up in a Car

This is my first tab, but I'll try and make it as good as possible.  A few notes before
begin.  You will see that I have Eb5 for a chord, I believe it is an Eb chord but I'm
sure the exact progression so if you have any input on that let me know.  Secondly, 
is an Ab chord but that can also be played, during the verse, as Absus or Ab4, play
you feel sounds better. And the Db in parenthesis is in parenthesis because it's not 
used as a full chord just as a passing tone between the other two.  So play it 
lightly and quickly.

Intro
Gb Eb5 Ab x2

Verse 1
Gb       Eb5  Ab      (Db)
I woke up in New York City
Gb       Eb5  Ab      (Db)
from my sleep behind the wheel
Gb       Eb5  Ab      (Db)
Caught a train to Poughkeepsie
Gb       Eb5  Ab      (Db)
and time stood still

Gb       Eb5  Ab      (Db)
She wrote me a letter from San Diego
Gb       Eb5   Ab     (Db)
To qualify her luck
Gb       Eb5   Ab     (Db)
These flights connect through arizona
Gb       Eb5   Ab     (Db)
but I think I'll stay stuck.

PreChorus
Gb  Eb5  Ab  (Db) x2

Gb                  Bbm
Well I woke up in a car
   Ab             Db  Ab
I chased away the fog so i could
Gb             Bbm
see the mississippi
       Ab         Db  Ab
on her knees
     Gb             Bbm
I've never been so lost
     Ab           Db  Ab
I've never felt so much at home

please write my folks and throw away my keys
   Db  Ab
I woke up in a car

Gb  Eb5  Ab

Gb  Eb5  Ab
I woke up in a car

Verse 2 (same chord progression as first verse

I met a girl who kept tattoos for homes that she had loved

If I were her I'd paint my body til all my skin was gone

she wrote me a letter as we passed through Rockford

she said she wont forget

And maybe I do, maybe I don't,

but I know I haven't yet

so here i am, well here i am wooo

Chorus

Gb                  Bbm
Well I woke up in a car

Gb             Bbm
see the mississippi
       Ab         Db  Ab
on her knees
     Gb             Bbm
I've never been so lost
     Ab           Db  Ab
I've never felt so much at home

I woke up in a car

Bridge

A         E               B
And maybe I could live forever
       Gb      Ab  A
If not ever I had known
              E                B
That you'd be waiting there whenever

I am all alone

Gb   Eb5   Ab

Gb   Eb5   Ab
but here I am wooo
