1]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI was just out of the service thumbin' through the classifieds[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWhen an ad that said old Chevy somehow caught my eye[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nThe lady didn't know the year or even if it ran[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                         [ch]D[/ch]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut I had that thousand dollars in my hand[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt was way back in the in corner of this old ramshackle barn[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWith thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]                               [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWhen I pulled the cover off it took away my breath[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                               [ch]D[/ch]           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWhat she called a Chevy was a sixty-six corvette[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]Am[/ch]                         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nI felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]                          [ch]C[/ch]               [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhat a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]                                    [ch]D[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThe date was nineteen sixty-six and this is what he wrote[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab]   [ch]Em[/ch]       [ch]D[/ch]      [ch]C[/ch]       [ch]D[/ch]\r\nMy name is private Andrew Malone[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]Em[/ch]           [ch]D[/ch]

[ch]G[/ch]\r\nYou'll always be riding with private Malone[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt didn't take me long at all I had her runnin' good[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nI loved to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI had her shinin' like a diamond and I'd put the rag top down[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]                                    [ch]D[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAll the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her through town[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]Am[/ch]                      [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThe buttons on the

night[/tab]\r\n[tab] [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI'd get the feelin' sometimes if I turned real quick I'd see[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]C[/ch]                           [ch]D[/ch]                 [ch]G[/ch]\r\nA
