[Verse]
        D                C#m Bm  
She was sittin' on a car lot 
           A
looking like a dream
G            A                D
Underneath a string of lights
  D       C#m    Bm            A
A 49 mod- el and I was sixteen
      G                A      
But I knew it was love at first 
        D
sight

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

[Chorus]
D     A    G                 D
Cars, just motors and wheels
G                A         D
Rubber and glass and steel

       G            D A          
Still, I think back over the 
    Bm
years
    G                  D         A
And it sounds strange, I suppose
         G          A           D
But it's cars I re- member most

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

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


[Solo]
|(D)(C#m)|(Bm)(A)|(G)(A)|(D)

[Chorus]
          D                  C#m   
Well, the years have gone by and a 
Bm                   A
lot of thing changed
  G                   A        D
I hardly see the kids any more
D              C#m       Bm    A
Took a new job and moved to A
    G                A            
And bought me a two- -seater 
   D
Porsche

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