In The Car Chords

Am              G7
She fed me strawberries and
               Am
freezer-burned ice cream 
                    E7
I said "Good-bye I guess" 
                  Fmaj7th
She lifted up her dress
                  D7
and so I must confess 
 
we made out one more
Em    A7 D     Em   A7  D
time before I left for good 
     Em      A7  D         Em A7
She thought I'd come back but I 
Bflat             F              E7
wouldn't want to seem like other guys
 
Am                 G7
A book-and-record love,
                     Am
we sat and read our books 
                       E7
between those longing looks, 
                   F
compounded by our fear 
                      D7
My tongue inside her ear, 
 
my tongue inside her
Em  A7  D       Em A7   D
in the basement of her mother's 
Em     A7   D        Em    A7
house where she once taped the 
Bflat                F           Em      C
first three sides of Sandanista! for my car
         D           G
We were looking for ourselves 
F#              Em
and found each other 
Bm      C
In the Car 
        D               G
It was rare to do much more
      F#     Em
than simply mess around
Bm      C
In the Car 
        D             G   F#  Em
It was mostly mutual masturbation 
Bm             C          D
And though we spoke of penetration 
            Am                               G
I'd have to wait for someone else to try it out 
 
(Guitar Solo)
Am G
 
Am                G
Once I had this dream
                      Am
where I slept with her mom 
                  E7                     Fmaj7
A secret all along, unless I've got this wrong 
                       D7
unless she hears this song 
 
unless she hears it
Em  A7 D   Em A7 D
on a tape inside her car 
Em  A7 D              Em  A7
with her new husband and she
Bflat             F                   E7
turns to him and says "I think that's me"
C
In the Car
          D           G
we were looking for ourselves 
F#              Em
but found each other
Bm      C
In the Car 
    D
We groped for excuses
G       F#        Em
not to be alone anymore
Bm      C
In the Car 
           D              G
we were waiting for our lives 
     F#      Em
to start their endings
Bm      C
In the Car 
         D            Cmaj7
We were never making love 
         D            Cmaj7
We were never making love 
         D             F   G
We were never making love
