[C#m]
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
Put your head on my shoulder, don't say a word
We'll cut across town [B] in my [C#m] Thunderbird
There's a burial ground, [B] beneath a [A] cattle herd
Mr.
Henry [E] Ford's building [B] me a [C#m] Thunderbird
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
[A] Put your head [E] on my shoulder, don't say a word
We'll cut across the [B] county in my [C#m] Thunderbird
We're from Pennsylvania,
[E] Welshmen [A] of words
My daddy [E] drove a DeSoto, [B] I drive [C#m] a Thunderbird
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
[A] She's the [E] voice of the [A] future, baby [E] have you [A] heard
[E] Tomorrow's taking wing [B] on my [C#m] Thunderbird
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
Put your head on my shoulder, don't say a word
We'll cut across town [B] in my [C#m]
Thunderbird
[C#] [C#m]
Got electric windows, [E] tilt [A] away wheels
Slide across [E] a bucket seat [B] for that sexy [C#m] leather feeler
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
Put your head on my shoulder, don't say a word
We'll cut across town [B] in my Thunderbird
[C#m]
[A]
[E]
[B] [C#m]
From the old Volkswagen, back [B] to the Model [E] T
Quite a lot of men are [B] dying just so you can [C#m] ride with me
My Thunderbird, [E] My Thunderbird
[A] She drives [E] like a dream, baby rest assured
Don't get any better [B] than a [C#m] Thunderbird
[G#m]
[C#m]
My daddy was a salesman, [B] my brother [A] was too
I would sell [E] anything [B] just to try to [C#m] stay with you
But not my Thunderbird, oh [E] not my Thunderbird
[A] Well that old man's [E] saying something, [A] I [E] can't hear a word
[A] I'm going [E] too fast [B] in my [C#m] Thunderbird
[A] They make a [E] man win,
[B]
[A] yeah they make a man [E] win
[B]
[A] Well they make a man win,
[E]
[B] [E] yeah they make a man [A] win
