Subject: CRD: I Can't Drive 55

Sad to say, but there is NO Sammy Hagar at OLGA.  So here's a quick and
dirty version of one of his tunes someone requested a while back to get us
started!  I just saw Van Halen, and these were the chords he played at the
concert.  This is, however, still in need of a lot of work.  I don't have
the album (dating myself!), but I've heard the song enough time to be pretty
sure most of this is right.

        I Can't Drive 55
        Sammy Hagar
