Dead man's curve
INTRO: F#
1. I wF#as cruisin' in my Stingray late one night,
when an XKBE pulled up on the right.
And roF#lled down the window of his shiny new Jag,
and chC#allenged me then and there to a drag.
I saF#id, "you're on, buddy, my mill's runnin' fine,
let's coBme off the line, now, at Sunset and Vine.
But I'll F#go you one better if you've got the nerve.
Let's G#mrace all the wC#ay, to Dead Man's

2. TheF# street was deserted late Friday night,
we were Bbuggin' each other while we sat out the light.
We botF#h popped the clutch when the light turned green,
you C#shoulda heard the whine from my screamin' machine.
I flewF# past LaBrea, Schwab's, and Crescent Heights,
and Ball the Jag could see were my six tail lights.
He pasF#sed me at Doheny then I started to swerve,
but I puG#mlled her out aC#nd there we were, at Dead Man's
F#CHORUS: Dead Man's Curve, it's no place to play

Well - the Dlast thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve.
And Bmthen I saw the Jag slide into the curve.
I Gknow I'll never forget that horrible sight.
I Cguess I found out for myself that everyone was right.
