Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers – Jaguar And The Thunderbird (Guitar Live)

C                        C
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

C                       Cm
Ten miles stretch on an Indiana road

Cm
T'was a sky blue Jaguar and a Thunderbird Ford

Cm
Jaguar setting on ninety nine

Cm
Tryin' to beat the Bird to the county line

Cm
Just a half-a-mile from Newtonville

Cm                     C
There had a speed sign sitting at the top of the hill

C        Cm
It said "35 miles, and stay in line"

Cm
But the Jaguar and Thunderbird never read the sign

C                        C
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

C
Ludenville was a real small town

A
Had a hundred and two

C
And nine acres of ground

C          Eb                     C
Some stool pigeon put the sheriff wise

 C
Told him "Park down in Newtonville

C
And catch 'em guys"

Cm                             C
Sheriff laid down, half hid in the weeds

C                      Cm
Parked for eight days, didn't nobody speed

Cm                         C
All of a sudden, dust rose on the road

C
Said "Here come the Jaguar and Thunderbird Ford"

C                        C                            G
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

C          Eb              C
Old Sheiff was countin' on the downward grade

C        Eb                           Cm
With the tall wind pushin', he had it made

Cm
Thunderbird saw the Jaguar gainin' speed

Cm
And waved "Goodbye, Jaguar" and pulled in the lead

Cm
Jaguar said "You ain't won the race yet"

Cm                         C
And pulled back around the Bird like a sabre jet

C         Cm
Sheriff's front bumper was a yard behind

Cm               C
When the Jaguar, T-Bird crossed the line

C                        C
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

Cm
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

Cm
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

Cm                                 C
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

C                Cm
Slow down little Jaguar, keep cool little Thunderbird Ford
