He says it used to be a farm before the Motor Law. And on Sundays, I elude the "Eyes" and hop the turbine freight - to far outside the wire where my white-haired uncle waits. [Riff 3] x2 [Riff 4] x1 [Riff 4] x2 w/ lyrics: Jump to the ground as the turbo slows to cross the borderline. Run like the wind as excitement shivers up and down my spine. [Riff 5] x2 w/ lyrics: Down in his barn, my uncle preserved for me an old machine - for 50 odd years. To keep it as new has been his dearest dream. [Intro] x1 [Riff 2] x2 /w lyrics: I strip away the old debris that hides the shining car. a brilliant red Barchetta from a better vanished time. Fire up the willing engine, responding with a roar! Tires spitting gravel I commit my weekly crime. e:----------------------------| B:----------------------------| G:----------------------------| D:----------------------------| A:----------------------------| E:--------5-------------------| (Bend this note into infinity, mix with heavy flange) [Riff 6] x2 [Riff 6] x3 /w lyrics: Wind in my hair, shifting and drifting. -- mechanical music, [Riff 7] x1 /w lyrics: -- adrenalin surge..... [Riff 7] x1 w/ lyrics: Well weathered leather, hot metal and oil, the scented country air. [Riff 8] x1 w/ lyrics: Sunlight on chrome, the blur of the landscape, every nerve aware!

I spin around with shrieking tires to run the deadly race; go screaming through the valley as another joins the chase. [Riff 3] x2 [Riff 4] x1 [Riff 4] x2 w/ lyrics: Drive like the wind, straining the limits of machine and man. Laughing out loud with fear and hope, I've got a desperate plan. [Riff 5] x2 w/ lyrics: At the one lane bridge I leave the giants stranded at the riverside. Race back to the farm to dream with my uncle at the fireside.
