and I was born one dark gray morn'
A bass E E6 riff
with music comin' in my ears, in my ears.

A bass (played 4 times here)
They call me Baby Driver, and once upon a pair of wheels
E
hit the road and I'm gone

what's my num-ber,
F#7
I wonder how your engine feels, ba ba ba ba ba,
E A7 G#7 G7 F#7 (<-play in quick succession)
Scoot down the road, what's my num-ber,

I wonder how your engine feels.

my mama got a raise in pay.
There's no one home, we're all alone;
Oh, come into my room and play, yes, we can play.
Chorus 3:
E|E|------||---
I'm not talkin' about your pigtails, I'm talkin' 'bout your sex-appeal

Scoot down the road, what's my number,
I wonder how your engine feels.
