Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
As [D]I was mot[Dm]iv a[D]tin' over the hill
I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville
A Cadillac a- rollin' on the open road
Nothin' [Dm]will out[D]run my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about 95
She's bumper to bumper,

[Verse 2]
rollin' side by side
[D]
Maybellene, why can't you be true
[G]Oh, Maybellene, why
can't you be [D]true
You've star[A]ted back
doin' the thing[G]s
You used [D]to do

[Verse 3]
[D]
Well, the [Dm]Cadillac pulled [D]up
Ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It then [Dm]got [D]cloudy and started to rain
[Dm]I tooted my horn for a pas[D]sin' lane
The [Dm]rainwater blowin' all under my hood
I know that I was doin' [D]my

[Verse 4]
motor good
[D]
Maybellene, why can't you be true
[G]Oh, Maybellene, why
can't you be [D]true
You've [A]started back
doin' the thing[G]s

[Interlude 1]
You used to do
[D][G]
[D][A][G][D]

[Verse 5]
The [D]heat went down,
the motor cooled [Dm]down
[D]And that's when I heard
that highway sound
The Cadillac a- sittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin' like
it's sittin' still
I caught Mabellene at the top

[Verse 6]
of the hill
[D]
Maybellene, why can't you be true
[G]Oh, Maybellene, why
can't you be [D]true
You've star[A]ted back doin' the [G]things

[Outro 1]
You used to do
[D][A][D]
