(The Corvette Song)   The One I Loved Back Then



 D                                       
 G             
 D
I stopped off at the quicksack for some beer & cigarettes

     
 G                 
 D                          
 A
This old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette

    
 D                                      
 G
He said, I had one just like her son, a 1963

          
 D               
 A                  
 D
Til' the man down at the bank took her from me


chorus:


I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol

               
 G             
 D
she was the fastest thing around


 G                    
 D
Long and lean every young man's dream

                          
 A
She turned every head in town

         
 D
She was built in from the handles

                              
 G
Son, I'm glad that you walked in

                      
 D       
 A         
 D
She reminds me of the one I loved back then


 D                                        
 A               
 D
Well I handed him my keys and said, here take her for a spin

    
 G                      
 D                               
 A
The old man scratched his head, then he looked at me and grinned

         
 D                                               
 G
He said son you just don't understand it ain't the car I want

                           
 D          
 A       
 D
It's the brunette in your vette that turns me on
