Verse 1
(G major) (C sharpdim) (D major) (G major)
Now I'm not a
man to point or judge
To bury (C major) a will or to hold a grudge
But I think (G major) it's time I said
(E minor) a few choice word (D major) s
About (G major) that demon, the automobile
The metal (C major) monster
with the polyglass wheels
(G major) In result of a dream (D major) of Henry (G major) Ford's
Sure, (D major) I've got a car, it's mine alone
(C major) That me and the finance company own
It's a ready (G major) -made pile
of manu (E minor) factured grief
(D major) If I'm not (G major) out of gas in the
pouring rain
(C major) I'm changing the flat in a hurricane
And I want to (G major) spend a weekend
lost (D major) on a clover (G major) leaf
Well, it's not just the smoke in the
traffic jam
(C major) That makes me the
bitter fool I am
But that four (G major) -wheel buggy's
a dollar (E minor) and me to death (D major)
Poor (G major) gas, oil, fluids and grease
(C major) And wires and tires and antifreeze
And them accessor (G major) ies, well,
son, (D major) that's something (G major) else
You can (D major) get stereo tape
and a color TV
(C major) Backseat bar and reclining seats
on top (G major) of those easy monthly (E minor) pay ments.
(D major) I (G major) figure that over a period of time
this 20 (C major) ,000 car of mine cost 97 (G major) ,048. Well (D major) Lord and Mr. Ford,
I (C major) just wish that you could see
(G major) what your simple horseless
carriage (E minor) has become. (D major)
Well (G major) it seems your contribution
to man (C major) to save
the least got a little out of hand.
(G major) Lord and Mr. Ford,
(D major) what have (G major) you done? (C sharpdim) (A major) (C major) (G major)
Now the average American
father and mother
own one (C major) whole car and half another,
(G major) I bet that half a car (E minor) is a trick to drive
(D major) But the thing (G major) that amazes me, I guess,
(C major) is the way we measure a man's success
by the kind (G major) of automobile he (D major) (G major) can buy
Well it's red (D major) light, green light, traffic cop, (C major) right turn,
no turn, must turn, stop, get (G major) out the credit card, (E minor) it's time for gas
(D major) All (G major) the cars of the world
placed end to end
(C major) Would reach to the moon and back
again
And there'd probably (G major) be
some fool pull out to pass
(D major) Lord, Mr. Ford,
I (C major) just wish that you could see
(G major) What your simple horseless
carriage (E minor) has become (D major)
Oh, how (G major) I yearned for the good
old days
(C major) Without that carbon monoxide haze
Hanging (G major) over that roar (E minor) on the interstates
(D major) Well, if the one (G major) that made the moon
and stars
Would have meant (C major) for me
and you to have cars
He'd have seen (G major) it, we was born
(D major) with a parking (G major) space
An (D major) d Lord, Mr. Ford,
I (C major) just wish that you could see
(G major) What your simple,
horseless carriage (E minor) has become (D major)
Well, (G major) this world was once
a garden spot
And now it's (C major) just one big parking lot
Lord, (G major) Mr. Ford, (D major) what have (G major) you done?
Come away with me, Lucille
Am I smoking, (A major)
choking, or (D major) T -Mobile? (G major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) you
