Dory Previn – Twenty-Mile Zone chords

[Verse]
AI was riding in my car

Screaming at the night
                 EScreaming at the dark
                   AScreaming at fright

AI wasn't doing nothing
                EJust drive about

Screaming at the dark
              ALetting it out

                      EThat's all I was doing
     AJust letting it out

AWell, along comes a motorcycle

Very much to my surprise
                                 EI said, "Officer, was I speeding"

I couldn't see his eyes

          DHe said, "No, you weren't speeding"
       AAnd he felt where his gun was hung
          EHe said, "Lady, you were screaming

At the top of your lung"

[Chorus]
              DAnd you were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming in your car


In a twenty-mile zone
         EYou were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming

              DYou were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming in your car


In a twenty-mile zone
         EYou were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming

[Verse]
AI said, "I'll roll up all my windows"
ADon't want to disturb the peace

I'm just a creature
              EWho is looking for a little release

         DI said, "What's so wrong with screaming
ADon't you do it at your games
         EWhen the quarterback breaks an elbow?"

When the boxer beats and maims

[Chorus]
              DBut you were, doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming in your car


In a twenty-mile zone
         EYou were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming

              DYou were, doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming in your car


In a twenty-mile zone
         EYou were doing it alone

You were doing it alone
         AYou were screaming

[Verse]
         AI said, "Animals roar when they feel like
AWhy can't we do that too

Instead of screaming 'Banzai baby'
       E                 AIn the war, in the human zoo"

AHe said, "I got to take you in now

Follow me right behind
                                EAnd let's have no more screaming

Like you're out of your mind"

      DSo he climbed aboard his cycle
        AAnd his red-eyed headlight beamed
        EAnd his motor started spinning
              AAnd his siren screamed

[Chorus]
       DHe was doing it alone

He was doing it alone
       AHe was screaming on his bike


In a twenty-mile zone
       EHe was doing it alone

He was doing it alone
       AHe was screaming

      DI was doing it alone

I was doing it alone
      AI was screaming in my car

In a twenty-mile zone

      EI was doing it alone

I was doing it alone
      AI was screaming

        DWe were doing it together

We were doing it together
        AWe were screaming at the dark


In a twenty-mile zone
        EWe were doing it together

We were doing it together
        AWe were screaming

        DWe were doing it together

We were doing it together

        AWe were doing it together

We were doing it together

        EWe were doing it together
EWe were doing it together


We were doing it together
                           AWe were doing it together alone


In a twenty-mile zone
