Fast Car



Hi, this is a little variation on the song fast car. It is played twice on

her cd. This is the main theme.


Fast Car:

e-----------0----0----------|5------4----4-------- Repeat this over, and

B--T------------------------|---------------------over, until the bridge "I re-

G--A--6-7-6-----------------|---------------------member we were driving..."

D--B--7-----7----------7----|7------7--------7----where the following chords

A---------------------------|---------------------come in:

E---------------------------|---------------------



e-----------0----0----------|5--7--5--4--5--4-----

B--T------------------------|---------------------

G--A--6-7-6-----------------|---------------------

D--B--7-----7----------7----|---------------------

A---------------------------|---------------------

E---------------------------|---------------------


Cheers!

E---------------------------|---------------------


D, for one measure, A for one measure, F#m(244222) for a measure, Esus

(022200) for a measure, then a measure in which a D and F#m are given equal

time, followed by a measure of E. Repeat the last two measures, then play one

with a D and E. Back to the repeating riff.



This is what I've got for Fast Car by Tracy Chapman:


I'm not going to post the words, b/c I don't know them. But this is

a decnt compromise on the continual riff throughout the song,

considering I can't play bass and acoustic guitars at the same time.

Oh, and yes, I did this by listening to the CD.



1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 repeat...


e---|-------0---0----|-5-----4---4----|

B-T-|-2-3-2----------|----------------|

G-A-|-2-----------2--|-----2-------2--|

D-B-|-0--------------|----------------|

A---|-------0--------|----------------|

E---|----------------|-2-----0--------|


I apologize if my notation is unconventional, but this is my first

TAB post attempt. It's a little tricky to play this version, but I

can manage it by keeping my index finger on the G, and by cheating

with my thumb for the E bass notes. The bridge/chorus(?) chords are

posted elsewhere.

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we’ll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won’t have to drive too far
Just ’cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
You see my old man’s got a problem
He live with the bottle that’s the way it is
He says his body’s too old for working
I say his body’s too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody’s got to take care of him
So I quit school and that’s what I did
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way
I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped ’round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain’t got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You’ll find work and I’ll get promoted
We’ll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I’d always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain’t going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way







Masz szybki samochód
Ja chcę bilet do gdziekolwiek
Możemy zrobimy interes
Może razem pojedziemy gdzieś
Gdziekolwiek jest lepsze
Zaczynając od zera, nic do stracenia
Może coś uda nam się stworzyć
Ale ja nie mam nic sobie do udowodnienia
Masz szybki samochód
A ja plan, jak wydostać nas stąd
Pracuję w przydrożnym sklepie
Kierowany tak aby zaoszczędzić trochę pieniędzy
Nie musimy jechać daleko
Tylko przekroczyć granicę i do miasta
Ty i ja, obydwoje możemy dostać pracę
I wreszcie zobaczymy co to znaczy "żyć"
Wiesz, mój stary ma kłopot
On żyje tylko z butelką w ręce, tak to już jest
Mówi, że jego ciało jest za stare aby pracować
Ja mówię, że jego ciało jest za młode, aby wyglądać jak wygląda
Mama wyszła i zostawiła go
Chciała więcej niż on mógł Jej dać
Powiedziałam, że ktoś musi zaopiekować się nim
Tak więc, rzuciłam szkołę i to jest to co zrobiłam

Masz szybki samochód
Ale dostatecznie szybki, że możemy stąd odlecieć
Musimy podjąć decyzję
Wyjeżdżamy dzisiaj lub żyjemy i umieramy jak dotychczas

Pamiętam, jechaliśmy, jechaliśmy twoim samochodem
Szybkość była tak duża, że czułam się jak bym była pijana
Światła miasta leżały przed nami
I czułam twoje ramię spoczywające na moich ramionach
I miałam uczucie, że należę do ciebie
I miałam uczucie, że mogę kimś zostać, kimś zostać
kimś zostać

Masz szybki samochód
A my udajemy się w podróż cieszenia się sobą
Ty wciąż nie masz pracy
I ja pracuję w markecie przy kasie
Wiem, że sprawy ułożą się lepiej
Ty znajdziesz pracę, a ja dostanę awans
Wyprowadzimy się z przytułku
Kupimy duży dom i zamieszkamy na przedmieściach

Masz szybki samochód
A ja mam pracę, dzięki której płacę nasze rachunki
Ty pijesz do późna w barze
Widzisz więcej swoich przyjaciół niż swoje dzieciaki
Zawsze miałam nadzieję, że będzie lepiej
Myśląc, że razem moglibyśmy tego dokonać
Nie mam żadnych planów, nigdzie się nie udaję
Tak więc, bierz samochód i jedź

Masz szybki samochód
Ale jest dostacznie szybki, że możesz odlecieć
Musisz podjąć decyzję
Wynosisz się dziś wieczorem albo żyjesz i umierasz jak dotychczas
