[Verse 1] Am

                    C                          G
You're a bottle cap away - from pushing me too far

                           D                    Am
Well the problem's getting big - It's a compact car

                   C                       G
So I won't feel so bad - I did all I could do

                   D                       Am
Now I'm on wounded knee - and we're at Waterloo

              C        Am
So please get out -

      C
of my car

[Chorus]

                  G               D
I was born in the - backseat of a - mustang

    Em                 C
on a - cold night in a - hard rain

        G                        D
and the very first song that the radio sang

       Em                C
was "I won't be home no more"

[Verse 2] Am

                       C                           G
You're a rattle trap tonight - my ears are getting tired

               D                         Am
So listen for awhile - before this thing expires

                C                           G
It was bound to fail - because of where I'm from

                         D                                  Am
Now the moon's at four o'clock - and it's high time kingdom come

              C          Am
So please get out -

      C
of my car

[Chorus]

                  G               D
I was born in the - backseat of a - mustang

    Em                 C
on a - cold night in a - hard rain

        G                        D
and the very first song that the radio sang

       Em                C
was "I won't be home no more"

      Em                C
And I won't be home no more

[Solo] G D Em C x4 (I'm pulling off the road) [Bridge] G

                D
I'm opening the door.

                   Em                            C
I'm giving you the pavement I'm telling you what for.

                      G
You're no more than a thought

               D
No more than a thought

           Em                    C        D
And you're getting smaller in my rearview mirror

             Em                    C        D
Yeah, you're getting smaller in my rearview mirrior

             Em                    C        D
Yeah, you're getting smaller in my rearview mirror

       Em                 C
You're getting smaller...

[Chorus]

                  G               D
I was born in the - backseat of a - mustang

    Em                 C
on a - cold night in a - hard rain

        G                        D
and the very first song that the radio sang

       Em                C
was "I won't be home no more"

      Em        C
And I won't be more

                  G               D
I was born in the - backseat of a - mustang

    Em                 C
on a - cold night in a - hard rain

        G                        D
and the very first song that the radio sang

       Em               C
was "I won't be home no more"

      Em               C
And I won't be home no more

      Em               C
And I won't be home no more
