Look! The Gateway Arch!

[PERCY]

[REPORTER]

But the road is still before me
      D                  E 
So pedal to the metal and drive!

[TRACTOR GUY]
(Spoken)
Bye kids!

[ANNABETH]
(Spoken)
Okay, here's the problem. Public transportation is suspended due to the storm, and if we get on a plane, Zeus will strike us right out of the sky.

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
Do we have enough drachmas for an Uber?

[GROVER]
(Spoken)
We don't even have enough drachmas for a cheeseburger!

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
If you hadn't bought all those dam snacks–

[GROVER]
(Spoken)
Uh, it was the Hoover Dam, and I was hungry!

[PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER]
(Spoken)
(indistinct arguing)

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Why are we fighting?

[ARES]
(Spoken)
                             A Em
I have that effect.
                      E
Ares, god of war. Maybe you've met my daughter - Clarisse?
Wh-o-oa, whoa, relax, I come in peace! I hear you runts are headed to Hades, but you'll never make it on public transportation. I can take you as far as Vegas.
Y’all cool with motorcycles, right?

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
What do you think? Can we trust this guy?

[GROVER]
 C                                        G#     
It’s one foot forward at a time?

[PERCY]
Dust off all that grit and grime?

[ANNABETH]
A
We still–

[PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER]
F#
Got a lot left to do

‘Cause people are counting on us
And I'm counting on you

Drive
Just drive

Stay ahead
Stay ahead
And stay alive

[ARES]
The road, it offers freedom
As for rules, hell, we don't need 'em!

[ALL]
So pedal to the metal and drive!

[PERCY]
I never dreamed that I could do this
Never felt like I was worth a damn
But I, I'm sorta getting through this
I mean, wha? I mean, look at where I am!

[ARES]
(Spoken)
Vegas, baby! This is where I get off.

[GROVER]
(Spoken)
That guy is so cool.

[ANNABETH]
(Spoken)
Okay, gang, we’ll be in LA tomorrow. But tonight, we need a place to sleep.

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
How about here? The Lotus Hotel.

[ANNABETH]
(Spoken)
Pssh, you're joking, right? In The Odyssey, if you went to sleep in a lotus bed, one night could last one hundred years!

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
Uh, I'm sure that's irrelevant. Um, excuse me miss, how long have you been at this hotel?

[BIANCA DI ANGELO]
(Spoken)
Why, my brother and I arrived just yesterday: May 1st... 1939!

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
Uh, we can sleep on the road.

[PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER]
Drive
Just drive

Stay ahead
And don't get dead
And stay alive

[GROVER]
With the wind upon our faces
We’re getting all the places

[ANNABETH]
No major fender benders
Now we’re looking like contenders

[PERCY]
The Oracle can can it
I'll save my mom and save the planet

[PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER]
So pedal to the metal and–

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
Oh look, a bus to Los Angeles!

[ANNABETH]
(Spoken)
Are you sure that's a good idea?

[PERCY]
(Spoken)
This one we just won't blow up!

[GROVER]
Ha!

[PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER]
And drive!
