Nanci Griffith - Ford Econoline (1986) chords
Start Jamming...
She [D] drove west from Salt Lake City to the California coastline
She hit a San Diego freeway doing 60 miles [A] an hour
[D] She had a husband on her bumper, she had five restless children
She was singing as sweet as a mom, yeah, [A] better than 40 [D] on the line
[G] She's a [D] soldier, [A]
she's taking my [D] number, I'm on the army [G] tour
She's in the police [D] fight [A] line cruising [G] along the damn 40 mile line
[D] Her husband was eggy, he was a Salt Lake City brat
And he filled the gold cage around his silver [A] coated hat
[D] Oh, he then nicely left her with a cheatin' man in his line
And his big mistake was infiring [A] her, that 40 [D] mile [G] line
[D] [G] She's out [D] there, straight from the bosom of the Mormon truth with a [G] voice [D] like wine,
[A] bruising [G] the lung and the forehead and all I need.
[D]
[A] [D]
[A] She's [D]
[G] out [D] [A] there, straight from the bosom of [D] the Mormon truth with [G] a voice [D] like wine,
bruising [G] the lung and the forehead and all I need.
Now she sings [D] these songs around,
from Seattle to Macon,
all those kids are grown and that around her,
no you cannot [A] cage your eye,
[D] along the bank of the river Nation.
She's from a living land,
she rides the coot of the river,
her heart [A] rides to and fro,
forehead and [D] all I need.
She rides the coot of the river,
her heart rides to [A] and fro,
forehead and [D] all I need.
Thank you!
[G] [Dm]
