Capo 5

G       D         Am     C
I’m a mechanic by trade
G                    D             Am         C 
Cars and trucks both foreign and domestically made
          G                   D                  Am          C 
Aren’t confusing when they’re moving but they’ll drive you insane 
          G     D  Am  C  
When they ain‘t


Drivers I am sorry to say
Usually eluding me in a similar way
I don’t blame them they’re same when I explain the delay
To their day. 


CHORUS:
    Em
Sometimes when I sleep 
  B7 
I dream that I’m seeing the 
C
World through headlights
G
Highway in sight
Em
When I’m awake
    B7 
I’m almost afraid of the
C                Am7               G
Rear view mirror leaning nearer to say
G      D           G 
Drive away, drive away


I can fix your automobile
Buy a set of tires and I’ll align your wheels
Not to mention the suspension, check wires and seals
It’s a hell of a deal. 

Chorus 2:
Spending every day 
Feeling nothing but pale 
From the worn out engines 
But I’m defending 
And when I’m asleep
I dream that I’m seeing 
The world through headlights asking if it’s alright to stay
Drive away, drive away.

I’m a mechanic by trade
Cars and trucks both foreign and domestically made 
Aren’t confusing when they’re moving but they’ll drive you insane 
When they ain‘t, when they ain’t
