From the recording Yellow Mustang
Lyrics
Yellow Mustang
Gm................................................................
He drives to her in a Yellow Mustang
(He makes a lotta noise)
Gm.....................................................................
She pulls the cork from the wine that he brang
(She's got a lotta poise)
Cm............................................
Stayed up late playin' guitars ....
D.......................................
must be fate under the stars
Gm.............Gm...........................................................
He sheds a tear from the song that she sang
Gm.........................
(She's got a pretty voice)
Cm..................................................................
Always a tune (for) 'what she can't explain
Gm..............................................
(She knows a lotta boys)
Cm............................................
Leans in to kiss, she turns away
D..................................................
boys like this , they never stay *engine revs*
Gm................................................Gm.................................................
(They never stick around,) they never stick around
Cm............................................................
Phone lights up with another girl's name
Bb........................................................................................
He says he's good but they're all the same
Ab.........................................................
You're gonna lose your shifty game
Gm..........................................................
I'll drive away in your Yellow Mustang
Cm............................................................
Phone lights up with another girl's name
Bb........................................................................................
He says he's good but they're all the same
Ab.........................................................
You're gonna lose your shifty game
Gm.........................(shift in power)....C Major...
I'll drive away in your Yellow Mustang...
(low and powerful) [change key to Major here]
C..
............................................................
She rubs his face right in his own shame
(back up vocal/guitar blues riff )
C.......................................
She shuts the door on a lovely evening
Gm........................................................... (back to minor to indicate revenge!)
She drives away in the Yellow Mustang.
(like a verse)
Gm..............................................................................
She drives away in the Yellow Mustang
Cm........................................................................................
Always a tune (for) 'what she can't explain
(bring it up again in "explain)
DMajor....................................................
(back to Major to indicate surprise, a new emotion,D.
joy)
She drives away in the Yellow Mustang
(up)
GMajor...............................................................D..............Gm
She drives away in the Yellow Mustang
