Welcome back, friends.
Now, you may or may not know this, but I happen to be the self-designated president of the
[D] Jamie Lynn Wilson Fan Club.
[A] She's a fantastic vocalist, a great songwriter, and a damn good friend.
We've [C#m] shared the stage a time or [E] two, or many, and I love it when she plays this next tune,
Old Oldsmobile.
[A] Old Oldsmobile is a [A] song that is on holidays and wedding rings, and this song is [E] really personal.
My husband and I, we have three [D] kids, and we, [A] at the time, we had [E] two.
And then we had all of these plans [G] for making a record and doing [A] this and having all [F#m] of
these things to do.
[E] And then I found out that I was pregnant [D] with baby number three.
[A] So
[E] I was in this songwriting group, and [G] it was a group where we all [A] had to turn in a
song [E] at five o'clock on Friday with lyrics and a demo.
[D] And it's Thursday, and I need to turn in a song on Friday.
And I went outside [E] with my guitar, and the first thing that I could think of was,
Number three's on the way, just [D] found out yesterday, gonna be a long, hot summer.
[D]
[A] And I was like, okay, [E] cool, I guess that's my song.
I guess [D] that's the song that I'm writing today.
And [A] the song actually [E] comes around to be about this old car that my husband and I [G] have.
It's a 1975 Delta [E] 88 Oldsmobile.
[D] And he bought [A] it when we were dating.
We [E] drove away from our wedding in that car, and we still have it.
[G] And so it's kind of a member of our family.
And when I need a moment, or when he needs a moment, or we just, [A] everything is just piling
up, [E] we just go, let's just go drive.
Let's just put the kids in the car or not, whatever, and just go drive.
And [F] so that's what that song is about, is just having something to bring you back [D] to center.
Anyway, Oldsmobile.
[E]
[D]
[G] Number three's on the way, just [D] found out yesterday, gonna [A] be a long, hot
[D] summer.
I'll [G] be big as a tree, [D] but you'd never say that to me.
[A] You're a good man, and you [D] know better.
Take me out babe, [G] for a drive today, in [A] our
[D] Oldsmobile.
[A]
[D]
Head on [G] your shoulder, with [A] your one wheel, of our
[D] Oldsmobile.
[G]
[D] I'll [G] get a lunch pack, you call [D] your mom back.
Could she keep [A] the kids, for an hour, [D] or two?
Could you have [G] imagined this, that day of [D] our first kiss?
Well I think [A] I did, and so [D] did you.
[D]
Take me out babe, for [G] a drive today, in [A] our
[D] Oldsmobile.
We're nowhere [A]
to [D]
go, so we'll just [G] go real slow.
With your [A] one hand on the wheel, [Em] of our
[D] Oldsmobile.
[D] We were [G] just kids at sea, knew blue [D] and borrowed things.
We drove [G] away that day, in this old [A] Delta 88.
[E] And I said, [D] take me out babe, [G] for a drive today, [A] in our [D] Oldsmobile.
Let's put the top down, show [G] off this white gown.
And your [A] left hand on the wheel, of our Oldsmobile.
[D] Oldsmobile, Oldsmobile, of [A] our Oldsmobile.
