David Crosby    Drive My Car         written by David Crosby


 Am

It was one of those nights
                     
 C
When you drive right by your own street
        
 D                                       
 Em7
And you wonder who's running your hands or your feet
         
 Am                      
 C
And your car becomes a capsule  sometimes you can't hide

 D                   
 Em7
Last night I needed I needed to drive
          
 Am      
 D            
 Am              
 D             
 Am   
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone
          
 Am       
 D            
 Am             
 D             
 Am   
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone

 Am                        
 C
I was not out looking for honey's
      
 D                           
 Em7
Oh I  noticed them like usual but not as strong
        
 Am                         
 C
And the distance between me and my pavement

 D                               
 Em7
It seemed to be a hundred yards long
         
 Am                 
 C
I still feel the wind on my elbow
        
 D                         
 Em7
But I'm driving by the seat of my pants
       
 Am                         
 C      
 D
I keep trying  trying to tune the radio trying to tune me out of my

 Em7
trance
         
 Am      
 D            
 Am              
 D             
 Am   
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone
          
 Am       
 D            
 Am             
 D             
 Am   
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone
            
 Am                  
 C
At least a car goes where you steer it

 D                                 
 Em7
Sometimes it's the only things it does
         
 Am                
 C            
 D

So I get in and I drive to hear it and I remember that feeling that

 Em7
there was
         
 Am      
 D            
 Am              
 D             
 Am   
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone
          
 Am       
 D            
 Am             
 D            
 Am  
 D
I want to drive my car I really don't care how far I want to roam

 Am
alone
