Intro:
Drums x4
Riff in G x 2 (1st time bass only)
A
Well, I have a saturday nite drive in a subway train,
A
a lotta speed inside my brain
Bm G Bm G
Shakin' brakin' it loose, the best that I can do
A
I gotta get out gotta get out now,
A
I wanna hear my wheels scream and shout
Bm G Bm G D
Get out of the subway, get my wheels on the street and start motorvatin'
A
Runnin' all alone in a lowdown street,
A
s-s-s-searchin' for my medicine
riff in A
And a little satisfaction from a woman is all I need.
F# E A F# A
I gotta pull myself together, hey-hey-hey, hear me say
F# E A
I gotta drive rite into the fire
F# A C#m
and I'm burning, burning, burning I'm motorvatin'
A
I got skintight jeans and high-heel shoes,
A
a leather jacket and nothin' to lose
Bm G Bm G
Gonna rock the nation down the filling station
A
Don't try to get a ride in my cadillac,
A
you don't look good enough for that
riff
Sure I am a loner but I'm never alone I get by on my own
F# E A F# A
I gotta pull myself together, hey-hey-hey, hear me say
F# E A
I gotta drive rite into the fire
F# A C#m
and I'm burning, burning, burning I'm motorvatin'

The "4b6b4" means, bend up and back a full tone.
For the long A-chords try something like this on lead guitar.

I'm not saying it's exactly correct, but rather just an estimation with
the feel. What really gets played there seems to slightly vary from one
recording to another.
