I Woke Up in a Car
Something Corporate

This is my first tab, but I'll try and make it as good as possible.  A few notes before
begin.  You will see that I have Eb5 for a chord, I believe it is an Eb chord but I'm
sure the exact progression so if you have any input on that let me know.  Secondly, 
is an Ab chord but that can also be played, during the verse, as Absus or Ab4, play
you feel sounds better. And the Db in parenthesis is in parenthesis because it's not 
used as a full chord just as a passing tone between the other two.  So play it 
lightly and quickly.

Intro
F# Eb5 Ab x2

Verse 1
F#       Eb5  Ab      (C#)
I woke up in New York City
F#       Eb5  Ab      (C#)
from my sleep behind the wheel
F#       Eb5  Ab      (C#)
Caught a train to Poughkeepsie
F#       Eb5  Ab      (C#)
and time stood still

F#       Eb5  Ab      (C#)
She wrote me a letter from San Diego
F#       Eb5   Ab     (C#)
To qualify her luck
F#       Eb5   Ab     (C#)
These flights connect through arizona
F#       Eb5   Ab     (C#)
but I think I'll stay stuck.

PreChorus
F#  Eb5  Ab  (C#) x2

F#                  Bbm
Well I woke up in a car
   Ab             C#  Ab
I chased away the fog so i could
F#             Bbm
see the mississippi
       Ab         C#  Ab
on her knees
     F#             Bbm
I've never been so lost
     Ab           C#  Ab
I've never felt so much at home
       F#                 Bbm            Ab
please write my folks and throw away my keys
   C#  Ab
I woke up in a car

F#  Eb5  Ab

F#  Eb5  Ab
I woke up in a car

Verse 2 (same chord progression as first verse

I met a girl who kept tattoos for homes that she had loved

If I were her I'd paint my body til all my skin was gone

she wrote me a letter as we passed through Rockford

she said she wont forget

And maybe I do, maybe I don't,

but I know I haven't yet

so here i am, well here i am wooo

Chorus

F#                  Bbm
Well I woke up in a car
   Ab             C#  Ab
I chased away the fog so i could
F#             Bbm
see the mississippi
       Ab         C#  Ab
on her knees
     F#             Bbm
I've never been so lost
     Ab           C#  Ab
I've never felt so much at home
       F#                 Bbm            Ab
please write my folks and throw away my keys
   C#  Ab
I woke up in a car

F#  Eb5  Ab

F#  Eb5  Ab
I woke up in a car

Bridge

A         E               B
And maybe I could live forever
       F#      Ab  A
If not ever I had known
              E                B
That you'd be waiting there whenever

I am all alone

F#   Eb5   Ab

F#   Eb5   Ab
but here I am wooo

Chorus x2

F#                  Bbm
Well I woke up in a car
   Ab             C#  Ab
I chased away the fog so i could
F#             Bbm
see the mississippi
       Ab         C#  Ab
on her knees
     F#             Bbm
I've never been so lost
     Ab           C#  Ab
I've never felt so much at home
