When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
F#m B E A B
And brought them all together for one night

I know they'd never match my sweet imagination

Everything looks better in black and white

Maybellene, why can't you be true?
F#m A
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
D E A
You've started back doing those things you used to do
A
As I was motorvatin' over the hill
A
I saw Maybellene in a Coup de Ville
A
A Cadillac rollin' on the open road
A
But nothing will outrace my V8 Ford
A
The Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five
A
Bumper to bumper and side by side
A C#m
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
F#m A
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
D E A
You've started back doing those things you used to do
A
The heat cooled down, the motor cooled down
A
That's when I heard that highway sound
A
The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead
A
Hundred and ten half a mile ahead
A
The Cadillac lookin' like it's standin' still
A
And I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill
A C#m
Maybellene, why can't you be true?
F#m A
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true?
D E A
You've started back doing those things you used to do
D E A
You've started back doing those things you used to do
D E A
You've started back doing those things you used to do
