[Intro] Am Am Em D x2 [Verse 1]
Am
  How did I get here?

            Em
Where was I headed?

      D              Am
You know, I can't recall

                        Em      D
Where did everything go wrong?

Am
  There was a highway

               Em
Frank singing "My Way"

   D            Am
Or maybe it was Sid

                          Em    D
Now I'm payin' for what I did

Am
  First there were sirens

               Em
Then there was silence

      D                  Am
And a black sky full of stars

                               Em     D
Oh, I think we might've gone too far
[Chorus]
G
Step on the gas

D
Get out of here

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town

G
Put it in the past

       D
In the rearview mirror

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town
[Verse 2]
Am
  I'll entertain you

             Em
But I can't save you

             D                Am
Although I'm doing the best I can

                               Em        D
I'm just a singer in a rock'n'roll band

Am
  You want a piece of

             Em
All that I think of

        D                       Am
And I'm thinkin' how pretty you are

                       Em      D
I'm lookin' for a getaway car
[Chorus]
G
Step on the gas

D
Get out of here

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town

G
Put it in the past

       D
In the rearview mirror

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town
[Instrumental] G D Am C x2 [Bridge]
Em                 Am
  I got nothin' to lose in this town

G
Gonna walk up to a wide-eyed girl

Em                    Am
Workin' at a counter, wastin' her life

G
Tell her that I'm leavin' tonight about midnight

Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along

Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along
[Chorus]
G
Step on the gas

D
Get out of here

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town

G
Put it in the past

       D
In the rearview mirror

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town

Am                      C
I don't wanna die in this town
[Outro]
Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along

Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along

Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along

Em                Am                     G
 You should come along, you should come along
Em Am G x2
