[Verse 1]
G
I drive a fast car
C
I'm very lonely
Am D
And you don't know me, cause I don't know you
G
I took a back road
C
Down to the westcoast
Am D
Just to make the most of the love we had, I say
[Chorus]
G C
You don't understand the ways I feel
Am D
Though I'm just like every body else
G
It's a fever dream
C
I awake it seems
Am
That I've really lost my mind
D G
I do not drive a fast car
C Am D G C Am D
No I do not drive a fast car
[Verse 2]
G
I had a bad trip
C
You already know this
Am D
I'm in the house now from living on the street
G C
And now it's groovy just like a movie
Am D
I've learned to stand now on my own two feet, I say
[Chorus]
G C
You don't understand the ways I feel
Am D
Though I'm just like every body else
G
It's a fever dream
C
I awake it seems
Am
That I've really lost my mind
D G
I do not drive a fast car
C Am D G
No I do not drive a fast car
C Am D G C Am D
No I do not drive a fast car
