Intro: G, C, G

G 
I went down to the car lot, to see my old friend Jack
G
He put me in the front seat of a big Cadillac
C                                      G
?American beauty? a baby blue Coupe Deville
D                              C                           G
I checked the rear view mirror? I rubbed my hands on the wheel

G
He said ?it?s good to see you sonny, you?re lookin? real?
G
?I heard you?re out of prison, tell me, how does it feel??
C                                        G
I revved the engine? I said it?s no big deal
D                                    C                             G
But just to have this baby? I would beg? I would borrow? I would steal

Chorus:
G                                        (Walk: G, A, Bb, B)
?Cause I feeeeel that feelin? commin? on
C                                                       G
I?ll run every red light, I?ll cross every border and zone
D                      C                           G
I don?t ever look back? you can?t stop a rollin? stone

G
Well, some folks call me sonny, but my name is Jimmy Mack
G
And I?m stayin? with my momma, down by the railroad track
C                                                                G
If she?s awaaaake this mornin?, she?ll hear these white walls squeal
   D                         C                       G
As I head for the highway, movin? this blue Coupe Deville
G                                        (Walk: G, A, Bb, B)
?Cause I feeeeel that feelin? commin? on

G
I slipped into the car lot, ?round about midnight
G
The moon was shinnin? on the hood, as I pulled out of sight
C                                                       G
If you down belieeeve, you?d say that Jimmy, he?ll be back
      D                          C                G
Well you can kiss my tail lights, on this blue Cadillac

Chorus:
G                                         (Walk:G, A, Bb, B)
?Cause I feeeeel that feelin? commin? on
C                                                       G
I?ll run every red light, I?ll cross every border and zone
D                      C                           G
I don?t ever look back? you can?t stop a rollin? stone
