CAROLINE HERRING - LEARNING TO DRIVE CHORDS

Caroline Herring - Learning To Drive CAPO: 4th Fret INTRO: G C Em D G

Pretty girl from a Delta town ^C Made to run the gasoline down ^Em

Learned a little 'bout many things

Our ^Dsweet potato, cotton queen ^G

Looks ahead when the whistles blow ^C A lady knows when it's time to go ^Em

Learned to drive on the graveyard streets

And ^Dgive a smile to all she ^Gmeets

INTERLUDE: G C Em D G Daddy taught her to never look twice

^CSay, 'Thank you ma'am' and always look nice ^Em Be the best like a football team ^D Scoring against the rivalry, and ^G

Keep the insides hammered down ^C Best performer of the stage in town A ^Emspeck surrounded by soybean fields ^DIn the land of red clay ^Gwheels

INTERLUDE: G C Em D G They say she'd tumble over the pews, and

^CGo sit with the preacher, too ^Em Play flute from the choir loft ^DSing alto and soprano parts ^G

And gaze out at the back church wall

^CStained-glass Jesus standing tall ^Em Holding all of his little lambs ^D And the whole world in his ^Ghands

INSTRUMENTAL: G C Em D G (2x) The boys eyed her through the rear-view mirror

^CSucking two straws on Strawberry Hill ^Em Coming back from a country bridge Or ^Dthrowing rocks from the water's edge ^G

Now she's all packed up in parcelled pillars

She's ^Cdriving a U-Haul across the Mississippi River ^EmLanterns on the levee and a fist full of cotton ^D Old times there will not be forgot^Gten

OUTRO: G C Em D G (3x)
