Motors Too Fast 
[Verse]
AmHe's just a local boy, Modelling for magazines
GNun-Chukka, Things are never Amquite as they seem
He's got throwing stars, He's got silver tops
GMama's grabbed her jewellery, Hidden in the bathroom
AmCalling the cops
[Bridge]
CGive me somewhC/Bere to go
Don't give me Amtrain rides
CWhen the shops are all cC/Blosed
Don't give me tAmrain rides
[Chorus]
CNever gave anyone the slightest notion
AmNever showed us that the call was cast
DmMama don't want you
Daddy don't want you
Your MFotor's running way too fGast
AmNow the Mallway's shuttered, Hanging in the afternoon
GDrink a little Vodka, Picking up the old man
AmRolling him 'round in her room
