[D] [G] [D]
I stopped off at the quick sack [A] for some beer and [D]
cigarettes.
[G] The old man took [D] my money as he stared at my [A]
Corvette.
[D] He said I [A] had one [D] just like her son in [G] 1963.
Well, a man down at [D] the bank [A] took her [D] from me.
Oh, she [B] was hotter than a two dollar pistol.
She [G] was the fastest thing [D]
around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream, she turned every head [A] in town.
She [D] was built and fond of that old son.
I'm glad [F#] that you [G] dropped in.
She reminds me of [D] the one [A] I loved [D] back then.

Then I handed him my keys and said, [A] here, take her [D] for a spin.
[G] The old man scratched [D] his head and then he looked at me [A] and grinned.
He [D] said, son, you just don't understand.
It ain't the car [G] I want.
It's the brunette in [D] your bed [A] that [D] turns me on.
I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol.
[F#] She [G] was the fastest thing [D] around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream, she turned every head [A] in town.
She [D] was built [A] and fond [D] of that old son.
I'm glad [F#] that you [G] dropped in.
She reminds me of [D] the one [A] I loved [D] back then.
[Bm] Lord, she was hotter than a two dollar pistol.
She [G] was the fastest [D] thing around.
[G] Long and lean, [D] every young man's dream, she turned every head [A] in town.
She [D] was built [A] and fond [D] of that old son.
I'm glad that you dropped [G]
in.
She reminds me of the [D] one [A] I loved [D] back then.
[G] She reminds me of the [D] one I loved back then.
