Strum
D-DU-UDU
Some  nights I can't feel  my beating  heart,
I've  got a second-hand body made  with junk-yard  parts.
An  ink-blot head that makes  it hard  to care,
Broke-down  hands won't get  me anywhere.
But  when I drive this car  to work
I  feel like I'm going places,
Landscapes  all around  me seem  to change.
And  when I drive this car  to work
I  feel like I'm made of something,
Some  day things will start  to go  my way.
I  spend my evenings lying on  this couch,
Countin'  all the cracks  in this  old house.
TV  dinner boxes on  the floor,
I'm  down 'cause you don't live  here anymore.
But  when I drive this car  to work
I  feel like I'm going places,
Landscapes  all around  me seem  to change.
And  when I drive this car  to work
I  feel like I'm made of something,
Some  day things will start  to go  my way.
