Dear Dad

G

[Verse 1]
Cm
Dear Dad, don't get mad, what I'm 
asking for
                              F
Is by the next semester can I get 
another car?
Cm                             F
This one here is sickning on a wide 
dual road
  G N.C.
I might as well be walking as to 
drive this old Ford
Cm
Almost every time I try to go and 
pass a truck
                           F       
If I ain't going downhill, Dad, 
         G
I'm, out of luck
    Cm                    F
And even if I get by it's still a 
rugged risk
    G N.C.
The way this old Ford keep a hitting
 and a miss

[Verse 2]
Cm
Last week when I was driving on my 
way to school
I almost got a ticket about a 
F
freeway traffic rule
     Cm                      F
It's now a violation driving under 
forty-five
    G N.C.
And if I push to fifty this here 
Ford will nosedive
Cm
Dad, I'm in great danger out here 
trying to drive
The way this Ford wiggles when I'm 
  F               G
approaching forty-five
  Cm                           
I have to nurse it along like a 
 F
little stubborn pup
    G N.C.
And cars whizzing by me, Dad, look 
like I'm backing up

    Cm
She just don't have the appetite for
 gas somehow
And Dad, I got four carburetors 
F               G
hooked up on it now
  Cm                             
I tried to hook another to see if 
      F
it'd do a little good
   G N.C.
But ain't no place to put it unless 
I perforate the hood
   Cm
So Dad, send the money, see what I 
can see
                          F        
Try to find a Cadillac, a sixty-two
    G
 or three
     Cm                            
Just something that won't worry us 
   F
to keep it on the road
   G N.C.
