  F#
I guess I should have known
       Ab                           Bbm
by the way you parked your car sideways
        Bbm7     F#maj7    F#     
That it wouldn't last. See you're the kinda person
        Ab   
That believes in makin' out once
Bbm          Bbm7      F#maj7
love 'em and leave 'em fast.

  F#                                    Ab
I guess I must be dumb 'cause you had a pocket full of horses
Bbm        Bbm7          F#maj7
Trojan and some of them used
           F#
but it was Saturday night
             Ab
I guess that makes it all right
            Bbm         Bbm7          Ab
and you say what have I got to lose".

And honey I say:

F#      Ab      C#  
Little red corvette
F#             Ab      Bbm7
baby you're much too fast.
F#      Ab      C#
Little red corvette
F#                     Ab       Absus Ab 
you need a love that's gonna last.


  Bbm7  
A body like yours ought to be in jail
                                    F#
'Cause it's on the verge of bein' obscene.

Move over baby
Ab
give me the keys.
          Bbm7                        Ab
I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine.


Additional lyrics

2nd verse

Guess I should have closed my eyes
when you drove me to the place
Where your horses run free
'cause I felt a little ill
When I saw all the pictures of the jockeys
that were there before me.

Chorus 4


Little red corvette baby
you're much to fast. . .
Little red corvette
honey you gotta slow down.
Little red corvette
'cos if you don't you're gonna run into the ground.
