Lyrics
NEW CAR SMELL
Lyrics by Peter Merz and Blair Byron Maclean
Music by Peter Merz
Life's roads have been rough and tough
On this old car of mine
The tire pressure's down again
I need to be realigned
A lifetime of coffee cups
Litter the back seat
The spare tires gone AWOL
The carpets worn out under my feet
PRE-CHORUS
I've got five dollars in my pocket
And the fuel reads "empty soul"
You know it aint no rocket
But I know itll get me home
CHORUS
View from the drivers side
Seems the sun is always in my eyes
I follow the voice of God's GPS
Through this Interstate of Lies
Take the off ramp to the "narrow way"
These bumpy roads rough up my Chevelle
Even though I drive this old beater
There's still that new car smell
That new car smell
Breathe it in
That new car smell
Breathe it in
Was long past due for a paint job
Eighty-some thousand miles back
These spark plugs got no spark
Some dents you just cant mask
My pit-stops few and far between
Theres another busted light
These streets are downright mean
Better not stop here tonight
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
At the Divine Intersection
Where Grace and Mercy meet
Christ grants new direction
When I park at His feet
And when Im runnin on empty
He fills my tank to overflowing
As I drive eternal miles
New life He is bestowing
INSTRUMENTAL
REPEAT CHORUS
TAG/END
Breathe it in, breathe it in
That new car smell, breathe it in
Breathe it in, breathe it in
That new car smell, breathe it in
