G                D
 The machine of a dream.
C                       *     Em                   G
 Such a clean machine.        When the pistons a pumpin',
D                     C       Em
 And the hubcaps all gleam.   When I'm holding your wheel,
G                             D
 All I hear is your gear,     When my hand's on your grease gun,
C                             * Play this in same place during the other verses
 Oh, it's like a disease son.

Em                    G      D                  C
 I'm in love with my car.    Gotta feel for my automobile.
Em                 G                   D                       C
 Get a grip on my boy racer rollerbar, Such a thril when your radials squeal.

B                                        C 
 Told my girl I just had to forget her,   Rather, buy me a new carborettor,

B                                              C 
 So she made tracks saying this is the end now, Cars don't talk back,

C                                        D (similar to intro)
 they're just four wheeled friends now.

Em                           G
 When I'm holding your wheel,   All I hear is your gear,

D                               C
 When I'm cruising in overdrive, Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive.

Em                   G      D                  C           *
 I'm in love with my car.   Gotta feel for my automobile.
Em                   G      D                        C           
 I'm in love with my car.   String back gloves in my automolove.
