[D]
One morning [A] while reading the [D] paper, [C]
[G] in search of a new set [D] of wheels, [B]
[A] classifieds [D] had a
most [Bm] curious ad [E] in their listing of [G] automobiles.
[A] [D]
I read in a suspicious amusement [C] [G] what seemed like a wild [D] stroke of luck.
[G]
Corvette Stingray it said, [D] low mileage, bright red, [G] A3 [A] model, [D] 65 [A] bucks.
[D] I was used to [A] my [D] newspapers and i-pods, [G] so I called up that number [D] straight away.
About that [A] 83 vet, [D] have you sold [B] that thing yet?
She said, no, [E] you're my first [G] call today.
[A]
[D] I said, there's been [A] some mistake in [D] the paper.
[G] They printed the price [D] wrong somehow.
[G] Oh, no reply, gee, [D] they got that from me.
[G] I said, go sell that [D] car, I need it now.
[G] Her address was in a part [D] of the city, [G] where I ventured just [D] one time or two.
Where [A] doctors make residents and lawyers [B] are [E] residents and houses are massive [A] new.
[D] As I turned up, [A] her half [D] mile driveway, [G] there in the heat [F#] of the day, [G] in the sunlight it
[Bm] gleams, the car of my dreams, [E] she's [A] 65 [D] dollars away.
[A]
Now [D] the interior [A] was done [D] in white leather, [G] at a 5 [D].87 V8.
[A] All the wingspan doors, [D] Hurst, [Bm] four on four, [E] and they genital [G] tape decal [A] print.
[D] There was [A] chrome on the chrome [D] on the fenders.
[G] [D] Aerodynamic design, [G] a bar, a TV, [D] and it was boggling to me [Em] that for 65 [A] bucks this [D] was mine.
[A] [D] I expected [A] that this woman [D] was crazy.
[G] To sell off this [D] car at that price, but [A] as we walked down the lane, [D] she's [B] perfectly sane.
[Bm] [E] She was charming, [Em] really quite nice.
[A] [D] Her [A] smile was such [D] great satisfaction, [G] as she handed me the title [F#] and the keys.
[G] I said, I've just got to know [D] why you let this thing go.
[Em] What's wrong with [A] this car?
[D] Tell me please.
[A]
Well friends, this would seem an opportune moment to let you all know that after the
show is done, out here on the table, there's a CD with the last verse to this song.
Well I wouldn't do that to you all, because I've got to get through you all to get to my car.
[F#m] [D] Since she, [A] I'll be 60 [D] come Tuesday.
[G]
I've lived here with my [D] husband Earl.
Well after [A] 40 years wed and [D] without a word [B] said, [D] [E] he left me for a young [Em] teenage girl.
[A] [D] His credit [A] cards left [D] here behind him.
[G] I knew that he couldn't [F#] get far.
Last [G] night from Florida, [D] he sent a wire to me.
[A] Said I need money dear, sell [D] the car.
