[INTRO: ]D
 
D A D
Now I?m a pretty big man around this town
G D
I got me the hottest little Chevy around
A D
My sweet little ?66
D A D
She got a yellow front fender and a gray one on the back
G D
But my income tax is comin? and I?m gonna paint her black
A D
Sweet little ?66
 
G
She got the 396, she got the four on the floor
D A D
And those stickers in the window ain?t just for show
A D
My sweet little ?66
 
D A D
Now old Bubba and me built her back in ?79
G D
Then he went into the army so now she?s all mine

Sweet little ?66

I used to run her down on River Road and make a little dough
G D
Can?t afford another ticket so I?m layin? kinda low

Me and my ?66

Solo:
 
D A D
Now she ain?t too good on gasoline, she burns a little oil
G D
But she was built by union labor on American soil
A D
Sweet little ?66

So when your Subaru is over and your Honda?s history
G D
I?ll be blastin? down some back road with my baby next to me
A D
In my sweet little ?66
