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