Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]May[G]bellene, why can't you be true
[C]Oh Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
You [D]done started doin'
the things [C]you used [G]to do

[Verse 2]
As I was motivatin over [G]the hill
I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville
A Cadillac a- rollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about ninety- five
We's bumper to bumper,
rollin' side by side

[Verse 3]
Maybellene, why can't [G]you be true
[C]Oh Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
You [D]done started back doin'
the things [C]you used [G]to do

[Verse 4]
[G]The Cadillac pulled up
ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It then got cloudy and started to rain
I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
The rainwater blowin' all
under my hood
I know that I was doin' my motor
good

[Verse 5]
Maybellene, why can't [G]you be true
[C]Oh Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
You [D]done started back doin' the things
[C]you used [G]to do

[Verse 6]
Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
[C]Oh Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
You [D]done started back doin'
the things [C]you used [G]to do

[Verse 7]
The motor cooled down the heat went down
[G]
And that's when I heard
that highway sound
The Cadillac sittin' like
a ton of lead
A hundred and ten half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And I caught Maybellene at the top
of the hill

[Verse 8]
Maybellene, why can't [G]you be true
[C]Oh Maybellene, why can't you [G]be true
You done started [D]back doin'
the things [C]you used [G]to do

[Outro 1]
