Gasoline

chorus: F G, F C Bb, Am G


I like to perform the song with a 
rhythmic strum, so I prefer standard
 tuning.  I use barr chords all the 
way
through except for the E chord.  
Here is my version:

verse – G#m F# x 3, e F#
chorus – E F#, E B A F#, G#m F#

PS Chords appear over the word 
indicating when to strum.

1st Verse:

G#m
Hands glued to the steering wheel,
F#
smack between a ledge straight down
      G#m                       
and a wall of spruce as thick as 
       F#
thieves.
       G#m
And as sure as a sharp corner comes
  F#
a jack-knife kind of creepiness,
      G#m           F#
sweeps up and over me.

       E               G#m
Oh gasoline don’t leak out on me,
             E                 
two thousand miles left to go a 
           B
brand new name,
A                       E
haircut, hell make me a blond
                  G#m              
if it’ll blend me in, it’ll blend 
  F#
me in.

G#m
“lovely weather for an April day,
  F#
I just came through Saskatchewan
        G#m                   
from as south as you can drive 
            F#
before you drop.”
     G#m
Said he just planned on passing 
through,
            F#
but that he didn’t know he’d crash 
into
    E                         F#
tarnation pouring coffee at a lonely
 old truck…stop.


Chorus (same as above, same 
everytime)


E
Down it goes from there on in,
      G#m
I’m a sucker for attention when
   E                             
it revs up to me wheeling like a 
G#m
screech.

    G#m
But by degrees his grip got tight,
   F#
suspicion turned his knuckles white,
       E                F#        
had to drive them in my face to 
      E
find relief.


solo :
C#m, B, C#m, B, E, F#
C#m, B, E, E, E, F#

C#m                         
Where I found the muster is a 
  B
mystery best left
   C#m                             
in apartments found deserted and a 
E
semi-trailer theft.
          E
Where you ended I’ll pick up,
        G#m
onwards to Tuktoyaktuk,
         E                         
about as north as you can go before
     F#
 you drop.
