Wheels
C#m                        D#m   
Start off pushing you on forward 
                      E
and you don’t have a say in where 
you’re going
B
Wheels
C#m                     D#m
Racing Matchbox on the floor
                     E
Crash and burn but everybody’s okay 
and
B               C#m               
Then you get a 10 speed at the 
 D#m
store
                              E
And they’re popping off the curb 
before you know it
       B
Those wheels
 C#m                       D#m
Countin’ down ‘til you're 16
            E
So you can finally get your own set

[Chorus]
          B
But they don’t slow down
    C#m
The speed picks up
           D#m                     
You start wishing you were young as
          E
 soon as you grow up
          B
And the farther you roll
     C#m
The faster they spin
       D#m                        
They drive you away and bring you 
E
home again
B            C#m       D#m
I swear sometimes it feels
C#m                E       G#m
Like life’s just a set of wheels

Wheels
C#m                         D#m
Roll your suitcase down the hall
                    E          
Heading home ‘cause Mom says he 
                      G
ain’t got much more time
             C#m            D#m
Two hands ticking on the wall
                  E
Keeping track of days and years and 
years and time
G
Like wheels
C#m                            
And now they’re spinning in your 
    D#m
head
                        E
‘Bout what you’re gonna do with what
 you’ve got left

[Chorus]
          B
But they don’t slow down
    C#m
The speed picks up
           D#m                     
You start wishing you were young as
          E
 soon as you grow up
          B
And the farther you roll
     C#m
The faster they spin
       D#m                        
They drive you away and bring you 
E
home again
B            C#m       D#m
I swear sometimes it feels
C#m          E      G#      G
Like life’s just a set of wheels

[Bridge]
                    C#m
Burnin’ out in the driveway
                           D#m
‘Cause you’re angry as hell
                       E
Cryin’ just for a little
                    G
Hoping nobody can tell
                C#m
You wanna go back
                      D#m
And try to slow ‘em down
                            E
But it all keeps spinning round and 
round like wheels

[Chorus]
          B
But they don’t slow down
    C#m
The speed picks up
           D#m                     
You start wishing you were young as
          E
 soon as you grow up
          B
And the farther you roll
     C#m
The faster they spin
       D#m                        
They drive you away and bring you 
E
home again
B            C#m       D#m
I swear sometimes it feels
C#m                E       G#m
Like life’s just a set of wheels
