[Intro 1]
[E][Em][C][D]
[C][D]

[Verse 1]
This old [C]car has seen the
ages since [D]the second of the world wars
[C]Bought by a Jersey family on
the cut[D]ting edge of poor
A [C]ragged wife and weary children
[D]stricken with the chore
Of a [C]restless man of thirty- five [D]who dreamed

[Interlude 1]
he lived for more
[D][E][Bsus4][E][Em][E]
[C]I'm

[Verse 2]
hating my surroundings
and my [D]soul I'm sure is dead
I [C]will die a hollow,
bitter man with a [D]gun against my head
I [C]need some time [G]to drive [C]alone
[D]to feel the wind of the life Ive blown
I [C]may be back, but don't expect that [D]this car

[Interlude 2]
will find me home
[E][A][Em][A][C][D]
[C][D]

[Verse 3]
After two [C]thousand turns of the gauge,
[D]he hid his wedding band
And [C]lost the keys in a musty room
to [D]lust and a womans hand
She [C]stole off with her lover
He was a [D]dressed- up blues- harp man
And they [C]chased the road to
Chicago for the [D]blues
From any raging band
[E][A][Em]

[Verse 4]
[C]
This old car has seen the ages since
[D]the second of the world wars
Its seen [C]a man in his final stagesseen two
[D]lovers opening doors
But the [C]doors jammed shut
and struck up the band
When [D]the blues man asked for more
The [C]woman heard no harmony
[D]in the blues
Of old Chicago lore
[E][Em]

[Verse 5]
[C]I'm [Em]hati[C]ng my surround[G]ing
[C]s and my s[D]oul I'm sure is dead
I will [C]die a hollow,
bitter man with a [D]gun against my head
I [C]need some time to drive alone
[D]to feel the wind of the life Ive blown
I [C]may be back, but don't expect that [D]this car will find me

[Interlude 3]

[Verse 6]
In a [C]back field in a farmers lot,
[D]a boy- man finds the car
[C]Bought for a song by his father,
its been [D]ten years off the tar
[C]A motionless engine is a curse
To a [D]boy with a ready heart
In [C]a boxed- up town the dreams abound
But [D]never get their start

[Interlude 4]
[D][E][Em][C][Em][C]
[Em]

[Verse 7]
I'm [C]hating my surroundings
and my [D]soul I'm sure is dead

bitter man with a [D]gun against my head
I [C]need some time to drive alone to
[D]feel the wind of the life Ive blown
I [C]may be back, but don't expect that [D]this car will
[E]fin[Em]d me home
