Slip The Clutch Chords by Marty Mone

_ The _ _ _ _ _ [Db] clutch in the bullnose [Eb] truck, I'm heading for the boat
[Cm] Well I never said [Db] goodbye to the woman this [Eb] time, but I left for her
_ [F]
Three [Db] steps in heaven, [Eb] well on the _ [Fm] high
I know it'll be [Ab] a while before I say [Eb] goodbye, cause I know you're looking well [Fm] Hey!
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] It was just my luck to be given the [Ab] truck with a naked arm and load
And five strips and a hammer and a adjustable [Eb] spanner and a roaring diesel
[Fm] The tacky crap was turning [Db] black as I passed the London Eye
[Ab] Waited one eye on the road and the other on the [Eb] phone, took a selfie passing by
[Fm] Hauling chains and [Eb] cranes and roads and [Ab] lanes and slurring money by the [Fm] ton
Blowing their horn [Eb] loud, going through the [Ab] towns and starting a run there [Fm] on
Holwood and [Eb] Crokemont's double-grade [Ab] top, but the road was rubbing the flaps
Well it was a good [Bb] laugh, but I broke a half [Ab]-shaft and busted the gearbox
Empty dump trucks and forty foot [Eb] behind, twenty-four [Fm] seven on the [Db] 019
And baby, [Ab] I'm coming [Eb] back to you
[Fm] The clutch [Db] in the bullnose [Ab] truck, I'm heading [Eb] for the boat
[Fm] Well I never said [Db] goodbye to the woman this [Ab] time, but I left for her
[Fm] Well the buck three [Db] steps in heaven, [Ab] well on the [Eb] high
Well I [Fm] know it'll be [Ab] a while before I say goodbye, cause I know you're looking well Hey!
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _
_ [Db] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Fm]
Slap some grace on the fifth wheel [Db] facing legs and pipes and lights
[Ab] Go on the delivery in Dublin [Eb] City like New York City at night
[Fm]
Calling for the council with airbags [Db] bursting, the tipping ram still up
Had a tip to load while still on the [Eb] go, cause I hadn't got time to stop
[Fm]
Hauling mail and [Eb] grain and boats and [Ab] trains and oil and bags and drink
[Fm] And driving to [Eb] Cal, instead of South of [Ab] Bel, and hoping she'd see
If your luck runs [Eb] out, home on the [Ab] bounce and you get super-humped and boots
[Cm]
Buy a [Eb] loaf and a vehicle [Ab] and twenty lump for the roof
Empty dump trucks and forty foot [Eb] behind, twenty-four [Fm] seven on the 019
[Db] And baby, [Ab] I'm coming [Eb] back to you
[Fm] The clutch [Db] in the bullnose [Ab] truck, I'm heading [Eb] for the boat
[Fm] Well I never said [Ab] goodbye to the woman this time, but I left [Eb] for her
[Fm] Well I'm up three [Db] steps and I'm [Ab] well on the [Eb] highway to hell
[Cm] And I won't be [Ab] a while before she's goodbye, cause I know you're looking well [Fm] Hey!
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _
_ [Db] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
Doing the tonne wheel down the [Db] M1 when the limber refused it met
[Ab] When the woman rang and said sorry [Eb] Tang, but you know I met someone else
[F] With blue chrome [Eb] stacks roaring up the [Ab] back on the bang flat out in top
[Cm] My only [Eb] fear in a nun's [Ab] dear, will he get her stopped at the dock
Right, so honey, got the hammer to the [Eb] floor, if that's your [Fm] twenty that's a big ten [Db]-four
But baby, [Ab] I'm still coming [Eb] back to _ you
[F] The [Db] clutch in the bullnose [Eb] truck, I'm heading for the boat
[Fm] Well I never said [Db] goodbye to the woman this [Ab] time, but I left for her
Well [Fm] I'm up three [Db] steps and I'm [Ab] well on the [Eb] highway to hell
[Cm] And I won't be a [Ab] while before she's goodbye, cause I know you're looking well [Fm] Hey!
