[Em] [A] Her class slam [Am] came floating [Dm] in down from the [Am] county line.
Just getting right on Saturday [G] night,
[Dm] riding with some friends of mine.
[F] [Am] They invited me to come and [Dm] see just what was [Am] on their minds.
And then I took my first long look
[Em] at the master of [Eb] sparks [Dm] on high.
[Am] In the back of Jim and his [G] Mac [Dm] stood a [Am] rusted case.
Welded into shape, my [G] slam [Dm] made out [F] of self-defeat.
[Am] I finally cried out with you [G] inside, [Dm] strapped in [Am] the safe
of a sound.
I thought to my own mind how those sparks would [Em] fly.
If that thing ever [Eb] hit [Dm] the ground.
[Am] Said, what's so pleased when I had [G] ease
[Dm] and do this [Am] trap of hell?
It slammed the door but it said no [G] more.
[Dm] And I thought I'd bring my [Am] last friend.
[F] [Am] We were down in the sticks down Highway [G] 6
[D] and the crowd was [Am] just about right.
The speed was too slow, I had [Em] to play.
Take a roll [Eb] and [Dm] dynamite.

[D] [Em]
[Am] When I hit the ground, you could hear the [D] sound.
I see [Dm] the spark, a [Am] country man.
And over and I began to spin, [Dm] but the ball started [Am] running wild.
[F] [Am] But it was too late as I met my fate
and [Dm] the ball started getting [Am] hot.
I knew the sparks and the flame.
I knew that the [Em] flame of the master of sparks [Dm] was gone.
