Motors Too Fast

James Reyne


Tom: Am

Am 
He's just a local boy, Modelling for magazines
G                            Am  
Nun-Chukka, Things are never quite as they seem

He's got throwing stars, He's got silver tops
G                              
Mama's grabbed her jewellery, Hidden in the bathroom
Am
Calling the cops


[Bridge]

C             C/B
Give me somewhere to go
              Am
Don't give me train rides
C                       C/B
When the shops are all closed
               Am
Don't give me train rides


[Chorus]

C                        
Never gave anyone the slightest notion
Am
Never showed us that the call was cast
Dm
Mama don't want you

Daddy don't want you
      F                       G
Your Motor's running way too fast

Am        
Now the Mallway's shuttered, Hanging in the afternoon
G            
Drink a little Vodka, Picking up the old man
Am
Rolling him 'round in her room
