E                  A            E
The first time that I lived in a car
E                     A          
I bought it for thirty dollars it
       B
 was a little Ford Escort
E              A                  
I slept in the parking lot of the 
E
park
      B                    
and I tried not to drain my 
 A          B                A
batteries, remember to pull out the 
key
B             A                   
before I fell asleep with the radio 
E
on
E                   A            E
The worst part about living in a car
E            A              B
is how hot it gets when the sun 
comes up
       E                  A       
and you can't stretch your legs 
      E
out very far
       B              A    B     
I would wake up every day, with 
          A
my knees in pain
B               A            
turn the key and hope the thing 
         E
would start
       A            B       E
Then my friend moved in with me
        A     E* B
we were happy as sardines
A         B        E
he had a job as a playground 
supervisor

A                     B      E
but he only worked an hour a day
A            A            E
I'd drop him off then I'd kill some 
time shoplifting at the mall
A        B               E
we both had our ways of bringing 
home the pay
   B                 A
but winter was on the way
    B                       A
and we were too big for our tiny 
little tank
      B                A
so we found a place to live
  E                   A        
we signed a lease and joined the 
      B              A            
army of the walking dead that pay 
  E
rent
   E              A            E
The next time that I lived in a car
E           A         B
I bought it from a cemetery
  E              A         E
it used to carry coffins right up to
 their graves
B          A            B       
it became a home to me, sleeping
       A
 on the near west streets
   B                   A          
and I could stretch my legs out 
     E
all the way
E       A         E
It was cold it was cold
E               A       B
but I loved it when it snow-o-o-ed
           E             A         
because the snow covered up all the 
E
windows
   B           A                 
and no one would know, that that 
B           A
wagon was my home
       B         A            E
I could sleep in peace with the 
ghosts
E  A        E
I traded it in
E               A     B
so that I could get a van
A                 B           E
because if you're gonna play in a 
punk rock band
   A                  B           
then someone's always gotta buy 
  E
the van
A              B              E 
it was fine by me because it 
                                 A 
seemed like compared to living in a
    B
 car a van
             E
was gonna be a mansion
       B              A
And that van became my home
     B                A
for about two years or so
       B                  A
I lived happy I lived rent free
           E                       
the day that I give up I know where
A               B
 I'll end up that van is in front of
 my
A                E
house waiting for me
