Silver Thunderbird Chords & Lyrics by Marc Cohn
Silver Thunderbird
guitar chords lyrics
There's another version on here already, but it's incomplete, difficult to read,
and the tabs are built in, so they don't allow transposing. I cleaned it up a bit. Enjoy!
Em D
G C G
Watched it coming up Winslow
Am G D
Down South Park Boulevard
Em D G
Yeah it was looking good from tail to hood
G C G
Great big fins and painted steel
Am G D
Man it looked just like the Batmobile
Em D G
With my old man behind the wheel
Em D
Well you could hardly even see him
C G
In all of that chrome
Em D C G
The man with the plan and the pocket comb
Am G C D
But every night it carried him home
And I could hear him sayin'...
G
Don't gimme no Buick
C G
Son you must take my word
D
If there's a God in heaven
C
He's got a Silver Thunderbird
G
You can keep your El Dorados
C G
And the foreign car's absurd
D
Me I wanna go down
C
In a Silver Thunderbird
Em D
G
He got up every morning
C G
While I was still asleep
Am G D
But I remember the sound of him shuffling around
Em D G
Then right before the crack of dawn
Am G D
I heard him turn the motor on
Em D G
But when I got up they were gone
Em D C G
Down the road in the rain and snow
Em D C G
The man and his machine would go
Am G C D
Oh the secrets that old car would know
Sometimes I hear him sayin'...
G
Don't gimme no Buick
C G
Son you must take my word
D
If there's a God in heaven
C
He's got a Silver Thunderbird
G
You can keep your El Dorados
C G
And the foreign car's absurd
D
Me I wanna go down
C
In a Silver Thunderbird
Em D G
