I couldn't find this song on here so I decided to post it myself!! First tab I've made,
some parts could be wrong, but it sounds pretty close!!
A.
Capo: 1st Fret
G-Em G-Em G-Em
G-Em
You might have seen one out in Minnesota
G-Em G-Em G-Em
G-Em
Or maybe down by the sea in Sarasota
C Am
But they were made back in Worcester Mass
C Am G
Of aluminum and bakalite and glass
G-Em G-Em G-Em
G-Em
Like a locomotive they were streamlines
G-Em G-Em G-Em G-Em
And the blue prints were drawn up from a dream of mine
C Am
Slap 'em up put 'em on the train
C Am
Out to Michigan up to Maine
Bm
You may find a diner down in Georgia or
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/martin_sexton/diner_crd.html ]
Carolina off the twenty by the piggly wiggly
C
In the country out of Waynsboro
Bm
Or when it's getting late and rainy out in New York State
You hang a louie off the thru-way
C
And you go and grab yourself a cheeseburger
D
At the little gem diner off the six niner
C D G
Diner my shiny shiny love
Am G
In the night you're all I'm thinking of
C D G
Diner my shiny shiny love
The cruiser pulls in where the trooper's always stop
As we dine over the chrome and formica table top
The cashier she always squints
By the gum and the bowl of mints
She's tapping her toe
To the Dean Martin on the consolette
Booth service and a cigarette we're loving it so
Side of fries a dollar
Or the haddock plate two ninety five
A rootbeer float a pepsi
And be sure to save some room for some apple pie
Better make it a-la-mode
Chorus
Dean Martin god rest his soul
Talkin' to me from the cereal bowl
There's a couple from the show me state
Knockin' back a little meatloaf plate
Diner my shiny shiny love.
Diner my shiny shiny love.
Diner my shiny shiny shiny love.
