67 Cherry Red chords by Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties

[Verse]

G            D
Same fucking payphone
G           D        A      Bm
I’m calling north to Mom to ask
              G
What year the Mustang is
             D                    A
And when she answers, I hear your voice, Dad
G               D
I’m coming home soon
G              D       A           Bm
Could I borrow cash to square some debts?
               G
I know I sound desperate
               D
But I swear to god, Ma
             A
I’ll pay you back.

[Chorus]

D        F#m      G
I bought myself a burner, programmed your number in
D         F#m       G
I took an ad in the paper, are there grease stains on your skin?
Bm     D       G                                      A
Do the songs of young love hum like an engine in your head?
 A
I got what you need ‘67, Cherry Red


[Verse]

Bm                D
I’ve never been a man’s man
A                G                    Bm
I ain’t much for cars and I’m sick of fate
              D
I’m done with praying
           A
But if you hear me, Dad
              G
I’ll keep her safe
G                  D
I keep having flashbacks
G            D            Dm                  Bm
I see you at dusk, in the summer, in the driveway
           G                      D
Smiling at everything, covered in engine grease
               A
A look in your eye I can’t explain


[Chorus]

D        F#m      G
I bought myself a burner, programmed your number in
D         F#m       G
I took an ad in the paper, are there grease stains on your skin?
Bm     D       G                                      A
Do the songs of young love hum like an engine in your head?
     A
I got what you need ‘67, Cherry Red


[Bridge]

E
This guy named Robert calls
            D                 F#m     G
And said he used to have that car at 23
Bm            A
Last year his wife passed on
             D           F#m         G
And he’s got memories in love in the backseat
E
He takes the wheel and grins,
            D                F#m             G
He gets the same look in his eyes you always did
Bm                     A
He can’t afford what I want for it
                D             F#m      G         Bm
But says it was nice to see a car like this again
                 D                     G
But I know he’ll love her the way that you did
      D         A      Bm
And I just need enough scratch
         Em                           D
To buy a bus ticket, mail some to the thunderbird
           A
And pay my mom back


[Chorus]

D        F#m      G
I bought myself a burner, programmed your number in
D         F#m       G
I took an ad in the paper, are there grease stains on your skin?
Bm     D       G                                      A
Do the songs of young love hum like an engine in your head?
A
