Intro: (D) (G) (D) (G)  x 2   

(D) My buddy Blake (G) was All-state, with (A) dreams of the NF(D)L.  
Jenny McClain had (G) big brains, she (A) got a scholarship to (D) Yale.  
(G) Then there was (D) Herschel, (A) who did two comm(D)ercials  
And (G) he was gonna (D) be a movie (A) star,  
But all I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)  
All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G) 

Had a part time job making chicken kabobs 
At the food court at the mall.  
I hauled my uncle's trash, I cut my neighbor's grass 
And I raked the leaves in the fall.  
My parents, they were stunned how this former lazy bum 
Suddenly was workin' so hard. 
But all I wanted was a car 
All I wanted was a car.  

  (A) Yeah when I (G) was six(D)teen  
  (A) All (G) of my (D) dreams re(A)vol(G)ved ar(D)ound one thing. (A) 
  All I wanted was a (D) car, (D/F#) (G)  
  All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G) 

Solo 

When I (Bm) finally got that (A) big hunk of (G) steel,(D) (G) those 4 wheels (D) under(A)neath,  
I went (Bm) everywhere (A) in it, (G) broke the speed (D) limit, 
And I (Em) even broke in the back(A)seat. 

Now when I look outside, sittin' in the drive it blows my mind to see 
An SUV and a Sedan, and two kids playing. 
I can't believe that they all belong to me.  
When I caught their momma's eye in that old thing I used to drive,  
I never dreamed it would take me this far. 
When all I wanted was a (A) car 

  Yeah when I (G) was six(D)teen  
  (A) All (G) of my (D) dreams re(A)vol(G)ved ar(D)ound one thing. (A) 
  All I wanted was a (D) car, (D/F#) (G)  
  All I wanted was a (D) car (D/F#) (G)
