Chords for Pick Up Truck Song - Jerry Jeff Walker

_ _ _ _ _ Pickup truck song.
I'll tell you a little story about this song
_ _ _ [F#m] My favorite parts was I used to go down to Luke and back right around with Honda on his old pickup truck
He had an old green Chevy [D] pickup
The outside of it looked like it'd been beat all over with the tire iron
And when he opened the door all this [F#m] junk rolled out of his old snow snuff cans and jumper cables and chains and piece of wood
He's whittling on maybe an old can he'd use somewhere
My _
_ [F#] favorite part though was riding home from Luke and back late [D] on a big full moon night
We turned the lights off kind of ride along in the moonlight
_ _ [F#m] Across the top of this one hill [D] Honda to say hey think it's right.
We're gonna go for the coast and record
_ _ [E] He'd shut the truck off.
We go down this little grade in the road
[D] _ I say I know how far is the coast [F#] and record so far?
He said that big tree up there at the end [D] of the hill
_ _ We'd be all leaning in the cab trying to get the truck go a little bit farther I
_ Mean, I didn't know how serious it was.
I mean going for a record and everything.
I had to try my best _ _
Some of the fun you can have in your pickup
