1000 Dollar Car  The Bottle Rockets

This is a great(and simple) song that I figured out today.
It's by the Bottle Rockets. I cannot believe these guys don't
get more radio play! Anyway, my name is Steve Brownell and
this is for Hilary.
Em G D C x2
[Em]Thousand dollar car it ain't wo[G]rth nothin'
[D]Thousand dollar car it ain't wort[C]h shit.
[Em]Might as well take your $1000,[G]
[D]and set fire to it.[C]
[Em]$1000 car ain't worth a[G] dime,
[D]You lose your $1000 every time[C].
[Em]Oh why did I ever buy,[D]
[Em]a $1000 car.
[Em]$1000 car is gonna let you[G] down,
[D]More than it's ever gonna get you ar[C]ound.
[Em]Replace your gaskets and paint over [G]your rust,
[D]You'll still end up with something that you'll never trust.[C]
[Em]$1000 car's life [G]was through,
[D]'bought 50,000 miles 'fore it got to yo[C]u.
[Em]Oh why did I ever buy,[D]
[Em]a $1000 car.
[D]A $1000 car ain't even gonna roll,
[G]til you throw at least another thousand i[C]n the hole.
[D]Sink your money in it, and there you are
[C]the owner of a 2,000 dollar 1,000 dolla[D]r car.
(guitar solo)
[Em]If you've only got a $100[G]0.
[D]You ought to just buy a good guitar. [C]
[Em]Learn how to play it it'll take[G] you farther,
[D]than any old $1000 car.[C]
[Em]If a $1000 car was truly worth a damn,[G]
[D]then why would anybody ever spend ten grand[C].
[Em]Oh why did I ever buy,[D]
[Em]a thousand dollar car.
