Car Wash - Bruce Springsteen
A       D                   A
Well my name is Catherine LeFevre
              D                       A
I work at the Astrowash on Sunset and Vine
          D                     F#m
I drop my kids at school in the morning
                D                       E     A
And I pick them up at Mary's just 'fore suppertime 
     D                  A
Well I work down at the car wash 
      D            A
For a dollar and a dime
    D              F#m
And mister, I hate my boss 
            D            E        A
It's at the car wash I'm doing my time
           D                   A
Pick up my water bottle and my towel, sir
      D               A
And I take 'em one by one
        D         F#m
From Mercedes to VWs
         D               E     A
I do 'em all and I don't favor none 
D                  A
Well I work down at the car wash 
      D            A
For a dollar and a dime
    D              F#m
And mister, I hate my boss 
            D            E        A
It's at the car wash I'm doing my time
                D  A  D  A  D  F#mDE  A
(Guitar solo) |  |  |  |  |  |  |   | 
         D                  A
Well someday I'll sing in a night club
           D              A
I'll get a million-dollar break
           D                         F#m
A handsome man will come here with a contract in his hand
         D                   E             A
And say "Catherine, this has all been some mistake" 
D                  A
Well I work down at the car wash 
      D            A
For a dollar and a dime
    D              F#m
And mister, I hate my boss 
            D            E        A
It's at the car wash I'm doing my time
            D            E        A
It's at the car wash I'm doing my time
            D            E        A
It's at the car wash I'm doing my time
