[Verse]
E               B
Stickshifts and safetybelts
A                 E
bucket-seats have all got to go.
E                  B
When we're driving in the car,
A                E
it makes my baby seem so far.

[Chorus]
E          A
I need you here with me 
E                 B
not way over in a bucket-seat.
E                A
I need you to be here with me and
E                 B      E
not way over in a bucket-seat.

[Verse]
E                            B
But when we’re driving in my Malibu,
     A           E
it's easy to get right next to you
E                  B
I say "Baby, scoot over please"
    A                      E
and then she's right there next to me

[Chorus]
E          A
I need you here with me 
E                 B
not way over in a bucket-seat.
E                A
I need you to be here with me and
E                 B      E
not way over in a bucket-seat

[Bridge]
        A                        E
Well, a lot of good cars are Japanese
        A
yea but when we're driving far
          B                                              
I need my baby, 
                        E    A E 
I need my baby next to me.         

B (Hold)
 Well,

[Verse]
E               B
Stickshifts and safetybelts
A                 E
bucket-seats have all got to go.
E                  B
When we're driving in the car,
A                E
it makes my baby seem so far.

[Chorus]
E          A
I need you here with me 
E                 B
not way over in a bucket-seat.
E                A
I need you to be here with me and
E                 B      E
not way over in a bucket-seat.
