A
There was nothing on earth that a girl could do
     E                                       F#m
The very first minute that I laid my eyes on you,
    E
on you
         A
Turned sheets to the wind, I was all confused
      E
Like burning my money, nothing left to lose
   F#m         E
I knew, I was doomed

       A
An attraction I just can't explain
        E
But I knew I was never gonna be the same
        F#m
I'd be lying if I said that
                         E
I always chose what was good
     D                                E
So where we gonna go in your Shelby '68?

Chorus:
                              A
I know you're gonna break my heart
                    E
When I get in your car
         F#m
Oh, the trouble I'm in when we take that spin
 D
Yeah, I'm in
                            A
I know there'll be hell to pay
                    E
Baby, I just can't wait
         F#m
Oh, I'm gonna get high when I take that ride
D                A
In your Shelby '68

I was rolling with my very own Steve McQueen
We were hitting that road
And I was living the dream
So it seemed
Like a Diamond Bullet in the dead of night, yeah
I knew it was wrong but it felt so right to me
Can't you see?

An attraction I just can't explain
But I knew I was never gonna be the same
I'd be lying if I said that I always chose
what was good
So where we gonna go in that Shelby '68?

Chorus

E             F#m  E
I just can't wait

A
Burn rubber baby, get on with the show
E
I'll take a ride if it's your rodeo
    F#m
The horses are wild and I'll cry,
                  E
but I'm ready to go
Let's go
A
The longest of days and the starriest nights
E
Rockin' and rollin' and running those lights
 F#m
No destination, we're racing, oh baby,
       E
just drive, drive
     D                            E
And take me away in your Shelby '68

Chorus

E                  F#m
Ooh, I just can't wait
D                    A
There'll be hell to pay
E            F#m
But take me away
D        A
Shelby '68
