Getaway Car

INTRO: G  C  G  C  G

                   C          G
The old man's been drinking
                 C         G
And momma's been driving
                            D      G
Herself home alone more and more
             C              G
Baby tugging at her breast
                   C              G
Little devil won't take no rest
            D                      
The goddamn neighbours all keeping 
G      C  G  C  G
score


             C          G
It's momma's birthday
            C                  G
Oh, but the bills ain't paid
                       D      G
We'll sit alone in the dark
                      C            
"Make a pallet by the screen door, 
       G
dear
                      C            
Try and get some cool air in here"

past


CHORUS:
      C                G       D
And I dream of a getaway car

One with no brakes or plates

Dark and swift without a trace
     C                G          D
I'll drive it, oh, so far away

Straight out into the night
          G                  C    
I'm gonna bury it all in the glow 
          G       C  G  C  D    G
of my taillights


                   C              G
Town pump's at the edge of town
The whores call his name when he 
C              G
comes around
Three sheets to the wind like a 
       D      G
millionaire
                   C               
Crawls home on his hands and knees
  G

                C                G
To three hungry mouths to feed
                 D           
Their bellies as empty as the 
      G
Frigidaire


CHORUS:
      C                G       D
And I dream of a getaway car

One with no brakes or plates

Dark and swift without a trace
     C                G          D
I'll drive it, oh, so far away

Straight out into the night
          G                  C    
I'm gonna bury it all in the glow 
          G
of my taillights
