Hot Rod Lincoln chords
Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen

My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinking
If you don't stop driving that Hot Rod Lincoln"

E A7 E B7

EHave (022100@1)you heard this story of the hot rod race
     A7When (x02020@1)Fords and Lincolns was setting the pace
     EThat (022100@1)story is true, I'm here to say
B7 (x21202@1)                     EI (022100@1)was driving that Model A

EIt's (022100@1)got a Lincoln motor and it's really souped up
     A7That (x02020@1)Model A body makes it look like a pup
         EIt's (022100@1)got eight cylinders, uses them all
         B7 (x21202@1)                  EIt's (022100@1)got overdrive, just won't stall

EWith (022100@1)a 4-barrel carb and a dual exhaust
     A7With (x02020@1)4.11 gears you can really get lost
         EIt's (022100@1)got safety tubes, but I ain't scared
    B7 (x21202@1)                   EThe (022100@1)brakes are good, tires fair

EPulled (022100@1)out of San Pedro late one night
    A7The (x02020@1)moon and the stars was shining bright
       EWe (022100@1)was driving up Grapevine Hill
B7 (x21202@1)                                EPassing (022100@1)cars like they was standing still

E A7 E B7

EAll (022100@1)of a sudden in a wink of an eye
  A7A (x02020@1)Cadillac sedan passed us by
         EI (022100@1)said, "Boys, that's a mark for me"
   B7 (x21202@1)                                  EBy (022100@1)then the tail light was all you could see

ENow (022100@1)the fellas was ribbing me for being behind
     A7So (x02020@1)I thought I'd make the Lincoln unwind
        E (022100@1)      
Took my foot off the gas and man alive
  B7 (x21202@1)                       EI (022100@1)shoved it on down into overdrive

EWound (022100@1)it up to a hundred-and-ten
   A7My (x02020@1)speedometer said that I hit top end
   EMy (022100@1)foot was glued like lead to the floor
       B7 (x21202@1)                            EThat's (022100@1)all there is and there ain't no more

ENow (022100@1)the boys all thought I'd lost my sense
    A7And (x02020@1)telephone poles looked like a picket fence
     EThey (022100@1)said, "Slow down! I see spots!
    B7 (x21202@1)                             EThe (022100@1)lines on the road just look like dots"

ETook (022100@1)a corner, sideswiped a truck
A7Crossed (x02020@1)my fingers just for luck
   EMy (022100@1)fenders was clicking the guardrail posts
    B7 (x21202@1)                         EThe (022100@1)guy beside me was white as a ghost

E A7 E B7

ESmoke (022100@1)was coming from out of the back
       A7When (x02020@1)I started to gain on that Cadillac
EKnew (022100@1)I could catch him, I thought I could pass
          B7 (x21202@1)                        EDon't (022100@1)you know by then we'd be low on gas

EWe (022100@1)had flames coming from out of the side
         A7Feel (x02020@1)the tension, man, what a ride!
         EI (022100@1)said, "Look out, boys, I've got a license to fly"
         B7 (x21202@1)                         EAnd (022100@1)that Caddy pulled over and let us by

ENow (022100@1)all of a sudden she started to knocking
    A7And (x02020@1)down in the dips she started to rocking
  EI (022100@1)looked in my mirror; a red light was blinking

B7 (x21202@1)                      EThe (022100@1)cops was after my hot rod Lincoln

EThey (022100@1)arrested me and they put me in jail
    A7And (x02020@1)called my pappy to throw my bail
       EAnd (022100@1)he said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinking
       B7 (x21202@1)                              EIf (022100@1)you don't stop driving that hot, rod, Lincoln!"
