Intro, D,G,A,Em

D				G
Boy I like to have that car,	I whispered to my dad
Bm			 G
I always heard a Mustang flys
D			G
We could fix it up, and make it new again
	Em			A7
All it needs, is just a little time


My Daddy's hardly ever home,	Since Momma passed away
He's always workin over-time
I know that he can not, afford to buy that car
Even though, he love to make it mine

1st Chorus
A7		Bm		G		
It's not that 	car that  I'm  needin
	 D		   A7
Just the chance to be with him
	     Bm			 G
I know that once these days grow past us
      D			A7	
They will never  come  again
G	  D		F#m		Bm
So little time, we spent way too much 	apart
G			D			
There could always be a part of us
A		 D
Together in that car

We finally let go of that dream
and the time we could have shared
It was a distant memory
Until last fall a call came
sayin Dad was gone, could come quick
He left a note for me

They buried Dad right next to Mom
Up on Colbys Ridge
There I said my last good bye
I opened up note and found a set of keys
Here's you car son, I hope it flys
 

2nd Chorus
It's not the car that your needin
But the chance to be with you
I hope you understand I always did
the best that I could do
So little time, we spent way too much apart
And there will always be a part of us
Together in that car
