Speeed King

RIFF1 (DRUMS) RIFF1 (DRUMS)

RIFF2

She came home again

She was drunk, she's not my friend

She's a groovy teenage girl

She's doing alright by me

C#m A F#

It's alright she's slowing up

RIFF2

But if you get her in a car

It's a long, long ride

Smashed up, buzzed out, speeding out of her mind

I'm scared for my auto, I'm 22 and a quarter

C#m A F#

I will knock her out

C#m A F#

I, I breathe

A

She goes around and around and around and around

C#m

And upside down, upside down

A

She's my speeed king

C#m A B

Around and around

RIFF2

We were sitting in a ditch

Some somersaulted pitch

The world and an ashtray's ash fill my mouth

But now my Ford Corsair's got a three inch hood

Smashed up, crushed down, mangled up for good

I gotta face the other

A brick filled inbred brother

C#m A F#

It's alright she's slowing up

C#m

And I, I say

E C#m A B

Well, it's a climb back to home an a British ruck

E

Mum said, "Get out"

C#m A B

Who cares, it's getting tough

E C#m A B

My speeed king's back

G F# A G#

My R.A.C., my enemy
