Henry Phillips – Drivin chords

[Verse 1]
EI ain't going to a friend's house
                      AAnd I ain't going to my place of work
                     F#mAnd I ain't going to a baseball game or a picture show
BI'm just drivin' in my car
EAnd I ain't looking at my watch now
                         A'Cos I ain't got no place to go
                                 F#mA man says "Hey, would you like a window shine?"
                                           BI said "a-thank you sir, I'm-a doing fine, I'm just drivin' in my car."

[Chorus]
E                           AEven though it looks like things ain't going my way
EI, didn't get promoted
AMy, wife she done left me
EAnd I, just got evicted
AAnd I, think I'm going bald now
EAnd, now all I got is
A                         F#MA bottle of booze, and this here Thunderbird
BAnd I'll be damned if it's insured

[Verse 2]
EAnd I ain't looking at the stop signs
                         AAnd I ain't looking at no traffic lights
                          F#mAnd I'm not looking at the children on the crosswalk
BI'm just drivin' in my car
EAnd I'm just sipping on my whiskey
                             AAnd I'm just sucking down some Valium
                           F#mAnd I ain't worried about no side effects from the Prozac
BI'm just drivin' in my car
E"How do ya do hitchiking mama?
                        A Get in the car and take a ride with me."
                        F#mShe says "Get your damn hands off of me."
                                                     BI say "Don't worry ma'am, I'm a friend you see, and we're just drivin' in my car."

[Chorus]
E                                 AAnd now the two of us are tearing up the highway
EWith, no registration
AI, ain't got no headlights
ESo I, can't see a damn thing
AAnd, what the hell was that now?
EI, hope it wasn't a human
A                                     F#mAnd now I'm getting heat from this girl that I just picked up off the road
BAnd she's only 15 years old
F#m         BShe's only 15 years old

[Verse 3]
E"How do you do, Mr. Policeman?
                             AHow's life treating you on the streets today?"
                        F#mHe says "Pull over son, walk a straight line."
                                                  BI say "A-thank you sir, I'm-a doing fine, I'm just drivin' in my car."

EWhat's them red lights behind me flashing?
                  AWhat's that there chopper up above?
                          F#mThe sign says "Checkpoint at the county line."
                                            BI say "a-thank you folks, I'm-a doing fine, I'm just drivin' in my car."

[Outro]
E          F#m          BI'm just drivin' in my car
E          F#m          BI'm just drivin' in my car
F#m           BShe's only 15 years old
F#m BAnd I'm just drivin' in my car
