Verse:
    D MajorD        C# minorC#m B minorBm       A augmentedA
She was sittin' on a car lot looking like a dream
G+G      A augmentedA        D MajorD
Underneath a string of lights
 D MajorD    C# minorC#m  B minorBm      A augmentedA
A majorA 49 mod- el and I was sixteen
   G+G        A augmentedA       D MajorD
But I knew it was love at first sight

    B minorBm         A augmentedA
And the man said, son, I'll make you a deal
   G+G       D MajorD       A augmentedA
And I knew I had to make her mine
 D MajorD       C# minorC#m     B minorBm       A augmentedA
I held my breath and slid be- hind the wheel
G+G       A augmentedA      D MajorD
It was my ver- y first time

Chorus:
D MajorD   A augmentedA  G+G         D MajorD
Cars, just motors and wheels
G+G        A augmentedA     D MajorD
Rubber and glass and steel
    G+G      D MajorD A augmentedA       B minorBm
Still, I think back over the years
  G+G         D MajorD     A augmentedA
And it sounds strange, I suppose
     G+G     A augmentedA      D MajorD
But it's cars I re- member most

Verse:
    D MajorD          C# minorC#m     B minorBm       A augmentedA
She was parked on the street by the First Baptist Church
   G+G         A augmentedA      D MajorD
As we ran down the steps hand in hand
  D MajorD        C# minorC#m    B minorBm         A augmentedA
My brand new Chev- y waiting there at the curve
    G+G         A augmentedA     D MajorD
And we waved to the crowd and got in

     B minorBm        A augmentedA
Well, the miles went by and so did the years
   G+G          D MajorD       A augmentedA
And I thought that we were doing alright
     D MajorD         C# minorC#m B minorBm         A augmentedA
Till she packed up the kids and picked up the keys
  G+G        A augmentedA     D MajorD
And just drove away one night

Solo:
|(D MajorD)(C# minorC#m)|(B minorBm)(A augmentedA)|(G+G)(A augmentedA)|(D MajorD)

Chorus:
     D MajorD         C# minorC#m  B minorBm          A augmentedA
Well, the years have gone by and a lot of thing changed
 G+G          A augmentedA    D MajorD
I hardly see the kids any more
D MajorD       C# minorC#m    B minorBm  A augmentedA
Took a new job and moved to LA
  G+G        A augmentedA        D MajorD
And bought me a two- -seater Porsche

    B minorBm              A augmentedA
There's lots of pretty girls out here and you know
G+G        D MajorD    A augmentedA
I could be doing alright
  D MajorD        C# minorC#m  B minorBm        A augmentedA
But mostly at night I just drive up the cost
  G+G        A augmentedA     D MajorD
And look at the cit- -y lights
