Intro:  C  C  C  C  C  C  C  C

C
   Mr. Smith had an Oldsmobile
F
   Baby blue with wire wheels
C                                        G7
   He took her home the day that she was advertised
C
   He said she leaked when it would rain
F
   Sounded like an aeroplane
C                     G7            C
   But I knew she was a jewel in disguise

G7           C   F
   She had a 455 Rocket

   The biggest block alive
C                                    G7
   I couldn't hardly wait just to take my turn
C
   She was made for the straight aways
F
   She grew up hatin' Chevrolets
C                 G7               C      G7
   She's a rocket, she was made to burn

C
   Well whose junkpile piece of Chevelle is this?
F
   Did you Boys come here to race or just kiss?
C                        G7
Hmmm   Don't you want to know what I got underneath my hood?
C
   I know she might sound like she's missing
F
   But buddy, she could teach you a lesson
C                    G7                       C
   In just a quarter mile, and I'll smoke you good

G7       C   F
   In my 455 rocket

   The kind the police drive
C                                    G7
   I couldn't hardly wait just to take my turn
C
   She was made for the straight aways
F
   She grew up hatin' Chevrolets
C                 G7                C       G7
   She's a rocket,  she was made to burn

Interlude:   C  C  F  F  C  C  G7  G7  C  C  F  F  C  G7  C  G7

C
   I'm telling you and I ain't ashamed
F
   I cried when that wrecker came
C                               G7
   As we skid I thought I heard angels sing
C
   We hit the curve and began to sail
F
   Took out most the safety rail
C                          G7                  C
   Even the cop asked me, "Man what'd you have in that thing?"

G7         C   F
   I had a 455 rocket

   The very kind you drive
C                                        G7
   You oughta watch yourself when you take that turn
C
   She was made for the straight aways
F
   She grew up hatin' Chevrolets
C                 G7               C
   She's a rocket, she was made to burn, burn
C                     G7                C
   Lord she's a rocket, she was made to burn.
