C 
I was traveling
down the turnpike
on my way to Maryville
G 
Leaving home for a week of fun
C 
down in those Tennessee hills
When I looked back in the mirror
saw a beat -up yellow van
F 
So close on my tail
C 
he could get my mail
G 
and I didn't even know the
C 
F

G 
there were Beanie Babies on his dash.

As he disappeared down that fateful road
G 
I knew the end of the story

So when I came upon that final fatal crash
C 
I wondered what had become
