[D] [G] [D]
I stopped off at the quicksack for [A] some beer and [D]
cigarettes.
[F#] [G] The old man took [D] my money as he stared at my [A] Corvette.
[D] He said I had [A] one just [D] like her son in [G] 1963.
Till a man down at the [D] bank took [A] her [D] from me.
Oh, she was hotter than a two dollar [E] pistol.
She [F#] was [G] the fastest thing [D]
around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream.
She turned every head in [A]
town.
She was [D] built in fonder and old son.
I'm glad [F#] that you [G] dropped in.
She reminds me of the [D] one [A] I loved [D] back then.

Then I handed him my keys and said,
Here, [A] take her [D] for a spin.
[G] The old man scratched his [D]
head and then he looked at me [A] and grinned.
He [D] said, Son, you just don't understand.
It ain't the car [G] I want.
It's the brunette in [D] your Vette [A] that [D] turns me on.
I had [F#] one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol.
She [G] was the fastest thing [D]
around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream.
She turned every head [A] in town.
She [D] was built [A] in fonder [D]
and old son.
I'm glad [F#] that you [G] dropped in.
She reminds me of [D] the one [A] I loved [D] back then.
Lord, she was hotter than a two dollar [F#] pistol.
She [G] was the fastest thing [D]
around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream.
