E                        A           E
Black Maryland road on a dark mellow night
E                   B
Two cars pulling up ahead on my right
E                         A            E
Gone up the highway gonna see my betty jean
        E
She got eyes like a jack rabbit

Staring dead at my high beams

E                           A         E
Well over in the woods in a hail door light
E                       B
Two red hills boys in a bare knuckle fight
E                                A E
Stretched out on the hood of our gto
E                               B        E
She's filing her nails shouting go bobby go

🎸 Verse 3:
E
Well she jumped in my car
           A       E
We started driving around

She turned that radio dial
        B
To that head banging sound
E                           A             E
Gone up the highway she was giving me the itch
E
She put her hand on my leg
           B             E
I drove us in a drainage ditch
