I was just out of the service thumbin' through the classifieds
A2
When an ad that said "Old Chevy" somehow caught my eye
E
The lady didn't know the year or even if it ran
A B E
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand
E
It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn
A2
With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp
B A
And when I pulled the cover off, it took away my breath
A B E
What she called a Chevy was a Sixty-Six Corvette
C#m B
And I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills
E A B
What a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel
E
I opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note
A2 B E
The date was Nineteen Sixty-Six and this is what he wrote
1)
C#m B A B
He said my name is Private Andrew Malone
C#m B A B
And if you?re reading this then I didn't make it home
G#m C#m A B
But for every dream that's shattered, another one comes true
A B
This car was once a dream of mine, now it belongs to you
E B A B
And though you may take her and make her your own
A B E
You'll always be riding with Private Malone
Well, it didn't take me long at all, I had her runnin' good
C#m B
One night it was raining hard, I took a curb to fast
E A B
And I still don't remember much about that fiery crash
E
Someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out
A B E
They didn't get his name but I know without a doubt
It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
