Verse 1
[C13]
I was born yesterday when they brought my Kamakiriad
[C9] [C13]
When they handed me the keys It's a steam-power 10 the frame is out of Glasgow
[C13]
The tech is Balinese
[C13]
It's not a freeway bullet or a bug with monster wheels
[C13]
It's a total biosphere the farm in the back
[C13]
Is hydroponic
[C13]
Good, fresh things every day of the year
[C13]
Good, fresh things every day of the year
[C13]
With all screens and functions
[C13]
In sync lock with Tripstar
[C13]
This cool rolling bubble
[F9]
Is all set to samba
[G9]
This route could be trouble
[F9] [Ab9]
(This route could be trouble)
Chorus
[A9]
Steamin' up
[F#7+5-9] [F#7]
That Trans-Island Skyway
[Cmaj13] [B7]
Tryin' to make that final deadline
[A9]
And if the lanes are clear
[F#7+5-9] [F#7]
We're gonna drive a little harder
[Cmaj13] [B7] [C9]
We'll be deep in the Zone by cryin' time
Verse 2
[D7] [C#7] [C13]
Say, there's a wreck
[C9] [C13]
On the side of the road Lots of blood and broken glass
[C9] [C13]
Well the kid who was driving
[C9] [C13]
I know from somewhere
[C9] [C13]
Some kids just drive too fast Wait just a minute
[C9] [C13]
There's a beautiful survivor
[C9] [C13]
With dancer's legs and laughing eyes
[C9] [C13]
C'mon snakehips, it's all over now strap in tight cause it's a long sweet ride
[C7]
Re lax - put some sounds on
[C7]
I'll brew up some decaf
[C7]
C'mon kick off those heels ma'am
[F9]
Now breathe in and sigh out
[G9]
Let's get with the program
[F9] [Ab9]
(Let's talk about the good times)

[D13]
Just at dawn
[D11] [D13]
These little streets I used to know
[D11]
Is that my father
[G13]
Mowin' the lawn
[D13]
(C'mon daddy get in let's go)

C'mon daddy get in let's go

Verse 3
[C13]
We pull into Five Zoos
Past motels and drive-thrus
That noon sun is blinding
[F9]
The tidepools are boiling
[G7]
Below plates are grinding
[F9] [Ab9] [D13-5]
(Let's talk about the good times)
