Ford Econoline

***CAPO 2***

    C                              
She drove west from Salt Lake City 
  C
to the California coastline
      C                       C   
She hit the San Diego Freeway 
        G
doing sixty miles an hour
    C
She had a husband on her bumper
  C
She had five restless children
  C               C      
She was singing sweet as a 
               G       C
mockingbird in that Ford Econoline
***Chorus:***
   F                 C
She's salt of the earth
G                     C
Straight from the bosom of the 
Mormon church
    F             C
With a voice like wine

    C                        C
Now her husband was a gambler, he 
was a Salt Lake City rounder
         C              C    C   
He built a golden cage around his
    G
 silver throated wife
     C                             
Too many nights he left her crying 
 C
with his cheating and lying
     C            C          G   
But his big mistake was in buying
   C
 her that Ford Econoline

***Instrumental Solo
***Chorus***

      C
Now she sings her songs around this 
country
   C
From Seattle to Montgomery
   C                         
Those kids are grown and that 
 C
rounder knows
  C     C      G
You can not cage your wife
        C
All on the back roads of our nation
   C
She's become a living ledgend
     C             C
She drives a Coup DeVille but her 
heart rides still
    G      C
In that Ford Econoline
     C             C
She drives a Coup DeVille but her 
heart rides still
    G           C
