I want a ticket to anywhere

-4 -4 -4 -4 4 4

-5 6  6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
Maybe together we can get somewhere

-6 6 7 -6 6 -5
Anyplace is better

-5 6 6 6 6 6 5 -5 -5 -5
Starting from zero got nothing to lose

-6 -6 6 -6 6 -5
Maybe we'll make something

-6 7 7 -6 -6 7 -6 6 -5
Me, myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car

-5 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5
I got a plan to get us out of here

-5 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 4
I been working at the convenience store

-5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5
Managed to save just a little bit of money

-6 -6 -6 -6 -5 -5
Won't have to drive too far

4 -5 6 6 6 6 5 -5 -5 -5 -5
Just 'cross the border and into the city

-6 -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5
You and I can both get jobs

-5 -6 -6 7 -6 -6 7 -6 -6 6 5
And finally see what it means to be living

4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4

You see my old man's got a problem

4 -5 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
He live with the bottle that's the way it is

-5 -5 -5 -4 -4 -4 -5 -4 -4 4
He says his body's too old for working

4 4 4 -5 -5 6 -6 -5 5
His body's too young to look like his

-5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -5 6 -5
My mama went off and left him

-5 -5 6 6 6 6 6 5 -5 -5 -5 -5
She wanted more from life than he could give

-6 -6 -6 7 7 -6 6 -5 -5
I said somebody's got to take care of him

-5 -5 6 6 6 6 5 -5 -5
So I quit school and that's what I did

-4 -4 -4 -4 4 4

You got a fast car

4 4 -5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
Is it fast enough so we can fly away

-4 -4 -4 -5 -4 -4 -4 4
We gotta make a decision

4 -5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
Leave tonight or live and die this way

-6 -6 7 -6 6 6 -5 -5

So remember we were driving,

-5 -5 5 -5 -5

driving in your car

-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 -5 -5
Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

-5 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 -5 -5
City lights lay out before us

4 4 -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 -5 -5
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

-5 7 -8 -6 6 -5 -5 6 -6 7 -6 6 -5 -6
I-------------had a feeling that I belonged

6 7 -8 -6 6 5 -5 6 -6 7 6 -5 6 -5 -5                 
I----------- had a feeling I could be someone,

6 -5 -5  6 -5 -5

be someone, be someone

-4 -4 -4 -4 4 4

You got a fast car

4 4 -5 6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
We go cruising to entertain ourselves

-4 -4 -4 -5 -4 -4 -4 4
You still ain't got a job

-5 6  6 6 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
I work in a market as a checkout girl

-6 6 7 -6 6 -5
I know things will get better

-5 6 6 6 6 6 5 -5 -5 -5
You'll find work and I'll get promoted

-6 -6 6 -6 6 -5
We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs

-6 -6 7 -6 6 6 -5 -5
