Verse 1:
      C
I'm a charger
     Am
That charges through the night
        F
Like an orange bolt of lightning
        F
Passing everything in sight
        G                            Am
I'm the best pal the Duke boys' ever had
    F                              Dm        G
I'm thunder on the highway looking bad, bad, bad

Verse 2:
      C
I'm a knight
         Am
Like the kind in shining armor
        F
With my polished body gleaming
      F
I'm a fighter and a charmer
   G                                   Am
If trouble comes your way just ask for me
    F                         G       C
My friends all know me as the General Lee

Chorus:
         F
I'm the General Lee
  F                           Em
A piston pumpin' steel belted cavalry
     Em                             Dm
I'll never let you down when you're riding with me
F                   G            | C C7 | C6 C |
Buckle up and I'll show you what I mean
       F
Take a look back there
F                                  Em
Sirens blowing red lights flashing everywhere
      Em                                   Dm
We'll cross the field and we'll be runnin' free
F                     G             |  Am  |  F  G  |
They'll eat dust with compliments of me         (break)

Verse 3:
      C
I'm a hero
           Am
And that's how I'll make you feel
            F
When you're riding shotgun with me
        F
And the law is at your heels
    G                                 Am
I'm glory bound and when the chase is done
     F                                       G
I'll take off through the mountains and have fun, fun, fun


Verse 4:
         C
I've got style
Am
Tearing through the curves
        F                          F
With my flag waving proudly to the people that I serve
    G                        Am
I'm number 1 and I'll always be
    F                                G       C
The pride of the South they call the General Lee

I'll jump that pond and we'll be running free
    F                   G            |  Am  |  F  G  |
And they'll go swimming compliments of me       (break)
