I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar
My [F] heart beating time with my [Am] breathing

There's [F] people out there turning music into [Am] gold [F]

VERSE 2:
Now my [Am] buddy Jim Bass he's a-working pumping gas
And he [F] makes two fifty for an [Am] hour
He's got rhythm in his hands as he's tapping on the cans
[F] Sings rock and roll in the [Am] shower

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [Am] [F]

[F] Each one a song in the [Am] making
Singing right to me I can hear the melody
The [F] story is there for the [Am] taking
