(verse 1)
riff A Asus2 Asus4
I gave a girl
riff A Asus2 Asus4
a ride in my wagon
riff A Asus2 Asus4 riff A Asus2 Asus4
she crawled in and took control
riff A Asus2 Asus4 riff A Asus2 Asus4
she was tired as her mind was dragging
riff A Asus2 Asus4 riff A Asus2 Asus4
I said get some sleep and dream of rock and roll
(chorus)
Asus4 E
cause like a picture she was laying there
D A
moonlight dancing off her hair
E
she woke up and took me by the hand
Bm
shes gonna love me in my chevy van
D E A
and thats all right with me
(verse 2 - chords same as verse 1 above)
her young face was like that of an angel
her long legs were tanned and brown
better keep your eyes on the road son
better slow this vehicle down
(play the chorus again)
(verse 3 - chords same as verse 1 above)
I put her out in a town that was so small
you could throw a rock from end to end
a dirt road main street
she walked off in bare feet
its a shame I won't be passing through again
(chorus again 2x, but this time sing the
last line as 'we made love in my chevy van and
thats allright with me')
