Maybelline
Intro: A / / / 2 / / /
A
Maybellene, why can't you be true
D7 A
Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true
E7 D7 A
You done started back doin' the things you used to do
A
As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybellene in a Coupe de Ville
Cadillac rollin' on the open roads, Nothin’ outruns my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' 'bout 95, Bumper-to-bumper, rollin' side by side
Chorus
Cadillac rolled up ahead of the Ford, The Ford got hot, wouldn't do no more
It soon got cloudy and it started to rain, I tooted my horn for the passing lane
Rain was pourin' under my hood, I knew that was doin' my motor good
Chorus
(instrumental, same pattern as chorus) x2
Chorus
Motor cooled down, the heat went down, That’s when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead, 110 half a mile ahead
The Cadillac looked like it was sittin' still, I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill
Chorus
Instrumental verse to end.
