Jonathan Sings version - Chords
All right this is a one, a two
A one two three four
F
So far she's taken three red lights
Four wrong turns
She's got the leatherette seat full of cigarette burns
Good-bye in the front
Good-bye all about
Stop this car I'm getting out
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
F
I'm not gonna wait until we land in the brook
And have all the little fishies swim by and take a look
Now they're all laughing at us with the brook trout
Stop this car I'm getting out
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
Bb
"Mellow out man, mellow out"
F
"No, no"
"Yeah, what's he so uptight about?"
Am
"No, no"
"Smoke some of this man"
C
"And act like an ostrich with his head in the sand?"
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
F
Suppose that deer runs across the road
Suppose that truck hits a rock in front of us
All you mellow little fellows could be scattered about
Stop this car I'm getting out
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
Bb
"Jonathan don't make a scene!"
F
"O.K., just tell her to wait until the light turns green"
Am
"You're wild man, like your vibes are so uptight"
C
"Yeah, but not for long pal, I'm saying good night"
F
She's taken three red lights
Four wrong turns
She's got the leatherette seats full of cigarette burns
Bye in the front
Bye all about
Stop this car I'm getting out
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
Bb C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
Bb F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
