Chords with lyrics

Johnny Cash - I Drove her out of my mind

Album: Out among the stars

Intro: G+G D MajorD

D MajorD
She gave me my walking papers


and ran off with someone new

G+G
Cuz he bought her things

         D MajorD
my wages couldn't buy

   G+G
So i turned to ups and downers

D MajorD
and everything between

E MajorE                    A augmentedA
Still i can't get her good lovin' off my mind

           D MajorD
Well today I bought a Cadillac

the kind she's always wanted

G+G
I called and asked her

         D MajorD
if she'd like to ride

           G+G
She said this is our last date

    A augmentedA          D MajorD
I said that's alright with me


cause tonight I'm driving her out of my mind

        G+G
Yeah I'll take her on a scenic cruise

       D MajorD
right off of Lookout Mountain

Cause she said I never took her out

   A augmentedA
when she was mine

      G+G
She'll see all seven states

   D MajorD
as we drive to the pearly gates

           A augmentedA
tonight when I drive her out of my mind

All the papers will read "Lovers leap


again off Lookout Mountain"


Cause i wrote a note

   G+G      D MajorD
that called it suicide

    G+G
But my epitaph will say

        D MajorD
"he killed his pain yesterday

    E MajorE
when he finally drove that woman off his mind

     D MajorD
Well now here she comes to greet me


dressed to kill and so am I

     G minorGm
Hope she asks me if this

       D MajorD
cadillac will fly

G+G
And I know that I'll die laughin'

    D MajorD
when I show her that it will


when I drive that woman


right out of my mind

        G+G
Yeah I'll take her on a scenic cruise

       D MajorD
right off of Lookout Mountain


Cause she said I never took her out

   A augmentedA
when she was mine

      G+G
She'll see all seven states

   D MajorD
as we drive to the pearly gates

           A augmentedA
tonight when I drive her out of my mind


They'll say Johnny Cash was quite a smash

         G+G
down here in Chatanooga

      D MajorD       A augmentedA
last night when he drove her

      D MajorD
out of his mind

D MajorD
yeah that Cadillac dealer's in for a big surprise too


99 dollars down, 99 dollars a month


Yeah it's gonna be just gorgeous


D MajorD
(ooh to the pearly gates)
G+G
