As recorded by ZZ Top (From the 1972 Album RIO GRANDE MUD) [Intro] E A E A E A E A [Verse 1]
     E                      A
In a flat Forty-One with my Strat by the door

       Dsus4        D
We was goin' to the country

                 E
For what we came for

                                            A
I'm sure you've smelled the trees in the air

    Dsus4         D
The best of motor cruises

                    E
Just the joy to get there
[Interlude] E A [Verse 2]
  E
I was approaching Simonton

     A
Down by the cotton gin

Dsus4             D
There was old man Berkman

                  E
Trying to flag me in

E
He asked if I would stay a while

    A
And if I needed gas

  Dsus4            D
I said, "No thanks anyhow

                  E
I don't drive too fast"
[Interlude] E A [Chorus]
       E          A
Hallelujah, hallelujah

B
Ride my Chevrolet

       E          A
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Dsus4   D        E
Ride my Chevrolet

  E                      A
I took the road down the Cinco

             Dsus4      D
Through that red Brazos River land

E                             A
  Done hit that freeway at sunset

        Dsus4          D            E
Now the big city lights are at hand
[Interlude] E A [Outro]
       E           A
Hallelujah, hallelujah

B
Ride my Chevrolet

       E           A
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Dsus4   D         E
Ride my Chevrolet
