Verse
A
I was just out of the service thumbin' through the classifieds
D
When an ad that said old Chevy somehow caught my eye
A
The Lady didn't know the year or even if it ran
D E A
but I had that thousand dollars in my hand.
A
It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn
D
With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp
E D
and when I pulled the cover off, It took away my breath
E
what she called a Chevy was a '66 Corvette.
D E
And I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills
A D E
but what a thrill I got, when I sat behind the wheel.
A
I opened up the glove box and that’s when I found the note
D E A
The date was 1966 this is what he wrote:
[Chorus]
A E D E
He said my name is Private Andrew Malone
A E D E
and if you’re reading this then I didn't make it home
A E D E
But for every dream that’s shattered, another one comes true
D E
this car was once a dream of mine, now it belongs to you
A E D E
and though you may take her and make her your own
A E D E A
You'll always be rid-ing with Private Malone.
[Verse 2]
A
Well it didn’t take me long, I had her running good
D
I loved to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood.
A
I had her shining like a diamond and I’d put the ragtop down
D E A
All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her through town
A
The buttons on the radio didn’t seem to work quite right,
D
But it picked up that oldies show, especially late at night
E D
Sometimes I thought that if I’d turn real quick I’d see,
E
B soldier riding shotgun, in the seat right next to me.
[Chorus]
A E D E
It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
A E D E
Who fought for his country and never made it home
A E D E
But for every dream that’s shattered, another one comes true
D E
this car was once a dream of his, back when it was new
A E D E
and he told me to take her and make her my own
A E D E A
And I was proud to be rid-ing with Private Malone
[Verse 3]
D E
One night it was rainin' hard and I took the curve to fast
A D E
I still don’t remember much about that fiery crash
A
Someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out
D E A
they didn’t get his name, but I know without a doubt...
[Chorus]
A E D E
It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
A E D E
Who fought for his country and never made it home
A E D E
But for every dream that’s shattered, another one comes true
D E
this car was once a dream of his, back when it was new
A E D E
And I know I wouldn’t be here if he hadn’t tagged along
A E D E A
Oh, Thank-God I was rid-ing with Private Malone
