I like to play it in G, but this tab is in A because A is what Chuck sang it in. (A chord plays throughout all verses) A / / / 2 / / / CHORUS: Maybellene, why can't you be true D7 A Oh, Maybellene, why can't you be true E7 D7 A You've started back doin' the things you used to do Verse 1: As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybellene in a Coupe de Ville Cadillac rollin' on the open road Nothin' outruns my V-8 Ford Cadillac doin' 'bout 95 Bumper-to-bumper, rollin' side by side (chorus) Cadillac rolled up ahead of the Ford The Ford got hot, wouldn't do no more It soon got cloudy and it started to rain I tooted my horn for the passing lane Rain was pourin' under my hood I knew that was doin' my motor good (chorus) (instrumental, same pattern as chorus) (chorus) Motor cooled down, the heat went down That's when I heard that highway sound The Cadillac sittin' like a ton of lead 110 half a mile ahead The Cadillac looked like it was sittin' still I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill (chorus) Back to index / b / berry_chu
