Speed – Montgomery/Gentry
Album: My Town
Writers: Jeffrey Steele/Craig Wallin

Capo 1

Intro: Em D C D (x2)

I’m tired of spinning my wheels
I need to find a place where my heart can go to heal
I need to get there pretty quick
Hey mister what you got out on that lot you can sell me in a pinch

Maybe one of them souped up muscle cars
The kind that makes you think you’re stronger than you are
Color don’t matter no I don’t need leather seats
All that really concerns me is

Chorus:
Spe–ed, how fast will it go, can it get me
Over her quickly, zero to sixty
Can it outrun her memor—y, yeah what I really need
Is an open road
D Em D C D (x2)
And a whole lot of speed

I’d like to trade in this old truck
Cause it makes me think of her and that just slows me up
See, it’s the first place we made love where we used to sit and
Talk on the tailgate all night long but now she’s gone
(no chord)
And I need to move on, so give me

Chorus (2):
Spe–ed, how fast will it go, can it get me
Over her quickly, zero to sixty
Can it outrun her memor—y, yeah what I really need
Is an open road
D C D (one strum)
And a whole lot of speed

C D (one strum)
Throw me them keys so I can put some miles between us
C D (one strum)
Tear off that rearview mirror there’s nothing left to see here
Let me lean on that gas, oh she catches up fast, so give me

REPEAT FIRST CHORUS

That’s what I need
I’m tired of spinning my wheels
I’m tired of spinning my wheels

Outro: Em D C D (repeat to fade)
