 (start with B-E-B-E)

 B                     E  
   when you motor away beyond the once-red lips
 B                       E
   when you free yourself from the chance of a lifetime
 B                        E  
   you can be anyone they told you to
                         Abm
   you can belittle every little voice that told you so
                Eb
   and then the time will come when you add up the numbers
 Abm                           Eb
   and then the time will come when you motor away
 F#   F#/F               F#/E   F#
   oh why don't you just drive away
 B                     E
   when you motor away down the icy streets
 B                           E
   you can't lie to yourself that its the chance of a lifetime
 B                        E
   you can be anyone they told you to
                          Abm
   you can belittle every little voice that told you so
           Eb
   and the time will come when you add up the numbers
 Abm                          Eb
   and then the time will come when you motor away
 F#  F#/F               F#/E        
   oh why don't you just drive away

 (solo starts)

       B     E             B      E
   come on           speed on

 (finish with B-E-B-E-B)
