Car Wreck by Devil Makes Three
Tabbed By: Taylor Sansom
I'm still not sure of the picking pattern but when I get it I'll tab it out as well. I'm
90% sure of the chords except it might go C to Am in the verse instead of C to F but
both sound pretty good and can be accomplished with a slight change in your singing. C/B
is just the walkdown/transition chord between C and Am
C F He grew up in a one-horse town G C G Wasn't much to do since all them bars had closed down C F He'd stare up to the stars sometimes when no one was around G C And he dreamed of getting out F G So he bought himself a pick-up truck that was covered up in rust F G He found a buddy for of shotgun seat that was someone he could trust C C/B Am And they hit the gas, headed west out to the setting sun F G C When the dust had cleared, they were gone. F G Well leaving just came natural, that's the way it seemed to him F G He'd been doing it so long, that's the way he'd always been C C/B Am And you can find him in some hotel room with the television on C C/B Am He might be high and he'll probably ramble on C C/B Am You can laugh beneath fluorescent lights and drink until the dawn F G C But in the mornin'....in the mornin' when you wake up he'll be gone. C F So he met a girl in a town along the way G C G She had beautiful brown eyes and a place that he could stay C F So he fell in love, and she fell in love in kind G C G It was so perfect that of course he lost his mind. F G He snuck of the kitchen one day before the dawn F G She called out after him and ran across the lawn C C/B And he said some things that he didn't mean Am That he'd best be travelin' on F G C She shed some tears and he was gone. F G Well leaving just came natural, that's the way it seemed to him F G He'd been doing it so long, that's the way he'd always been C C/B Am And you can find him in some hotel room with the television on C C/B Am He might be high and he'll probably ramble on C C/B Am You can laugh beneath fluorescent lights and drink until the dawn F G C But in the mornin'....in the mornin' when you wake up he'll be gone. C F Eighteen years later, fifteen-hundred miles from home G C G He can't shake her from his mind though the whiskey soaks his bones C F He heads out on a back-roads in the middle of the night G C G Head up to the meadow, you know he timed that curve just right F G But some bridges you cross over but the rest you've got to burn F G He may have lost the road the road but I know he made his turn C C/B Am And as we pulled him from the wreckage, I promised him a song F G C Cuz it was clear that he was gone. F G Well leaving just came natural, that's the way it seemed to him F G He'd been doing it so long, that's the way he'd always been C C/B Am And you can find him in some hotel room with the television on C C/B Am He might be high and he'll probably ramble on C C/B Am You can laugh beneath fluorescent lights and drink until the dawn F G C But in the mornin'....in the mornin' when you wake up he'll be gone.
