[F#m] [F#] I was cruising in my Stingray late one [A] night, [B] and a Dix K.E. pulled up on the right.
[F#] He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag, [C#] and jotted me then, and there to a drag.
[F#] I said, you're on a bloody farm, and it's running fine.
[B] You should come off the line now, and stop sitting blind.
[F#] But I'll go you one better, and you've got the nerve to do it.
[G#m] Let's race all the way [C#] to the [F#] next.

[F#] The scream was the sort of thing Friday night.
[B] We were plugging each other while we sat out the light.
[F#] We both popped the clutch when the light turned green.
[C#] You should have heard the whine from my screaming machine.
[F#] I flew past the brass, walking in crimson light.
[B] And all the Jags you see were my sick pale light.
[F#] He passed me at no knee, then I started to squirt.
[G#m] But I told him about them there [C#] we were, at Dead [F#] Man's, Dead Man's Curve.
[G] [A]
[Em] [D] Well, the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to [Bm] swerve.
And then I saw the [G] Jag slide into the curve.
I know I'll never forget that horrible sight.
[C] I guess I found out for myself that everyone [G] was [C#m] right.
