The One I Loved Back Then (The Corvette Song)by George Jones
GCG
I stopped off at the Quicksack for some beer and cigarettes
CGD7
This old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette
GC
He said I had one just like her sona 1963
GD7G
Till the man down at the bank took her from me
I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol
CG
She was the fastest thing around
CG
Long and lean every young man's dream
D7
She turned every head in town
G
She was built in from the handles son
C
I'm glad that you walked in
GD7G
She reminds me of the one I loved back then
D7G
Well I handed him my keys and said here take her for a spin
CGD7
The old man scratched his head then he looked at me and grinned
GC
He said son you just don't understand it ain't the car I want
GD7G
It's the brunette in your Vette that turns me on
