Intro D A/D G/D D A/D G9
Verse
D A/D G/D
Boy I'd love to have that car, I whispered to my Dad
D A/D G9
I always heard a Mustang flies
D/F# G9 D A
We could fix it up, and make it new again
G9 Asus A
All it needs, is just a little time
D A/D G/D
Daddy's hardly ever home, since Mama passed away
D A/D G9
He's always workin' over-time
D/F# G9 D A
I know that he can not afford to buy that car
G9 Asus A
Even though, he love to make it mine
Chorus
Bm G9
It's not the car that I'm needin'
D A
Just the chance to be with him
Bm G9
I know that once these days roll past us
D A
They will never come again
G D/F# F# Bm
So little time, we spent way too much apart
G D
There would always be a part of us
A D A/D G/D
Together in that car
Verse
D A/D
I finally let go of that dream
G/D
And the time we could have shared
D A/D G9
It was a distant memory
D/F# G9
Until last fall a call came
D A G9
Sayin' Dad was gone, could I come quick
Asus A
He left a note for me
D A/D
We buried Dad right next to Mom
G/D
Up on Crowley's Ridge
D A/D G9
There I said my last goodbye
D/F# G9 D A
I opened up note and found a set of keys
G9 Asus A
Here's you car son, I hope it flies
Chorus
Bm G9
It's not the car that you're needin'
D A
But it's my chance to be with you
Bm G9
I hope you understand I always did
D A
The best that I could do
G D/F# F# Bm
So little time, and we spent way too much apart
G D
Now there will always be a part of us
A Bm D/A
Together in that car
G D Asus A D
There will always be a part of us together in that car
A/D G/D D
