Tuning:E A D G B E

[Intro]
N.C.
All right this is a one, a two
A one two three four
 
[Instrumental w/ horn]
C Bb F
 
 
[Verse A]
F
So far she's taken three red lights
 
Four wrong turns
 
She's got the leatherette seat full of cigarette burns
F
Good-bye in the front
 
Good-bye all about
 
Stop this car I'm getting out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
 
 
[Verse B]
F             Dm            Bb          C
I'm not gonna wait until we land in the brook
         F              Dm           Bb            C
And have all the little fishies swim by and take a look
F               Dm             Bb             C
Now they're all laughing at us with the brook trout
F
Stop this car I'm getting out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
 
 
[Bridge]
Bb
"Mellow out man, mellow out"
"No, no"
F
"Yeah, what's he so uptight about?"
"No, no"
Gm
"Smoke some of this man"
C
"And act like an ostrich with his head in the sand?"
 
 
[Chorus]
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
       F
I say, stop this car I'm getting out!
 
 
F Bb C x3
(little scat solo here)
F
Stop this car I'm getting out!
 
 
[Verse A]
F
Suppose that deer runs across the road
F
Suppose that truck hits a rock in front of us
F
All you mellow little fellows could be scattered about
F
Stop this car I'm getting out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
F
Stop this car, thanks,  I'm getting out!
 
 
[Bridge]
Bb
"Jonathan, don't make a scene!"
F
"O.K., just tell her to wait until the light turns green"
Gm
"You're wild man, like your vibes are so uptight"
C
"Yeah, but not for long pal, I'm saying good night"
 
 
[Verse A]
            F
She's taken three red lights
F
Four wrong turns
              F                             F
She's got the leatherette seats filled with cigarette burns
F
Bye in the front
F
Bye all about
F
Stop this car I'm getting out
 
 
[Chorus]
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
       F
I say, stop this car I'm getting out!
 
F                   Bb         C
This time I'm gonna scream and shout
       F
I say, stop this car I'm getting out!
