Tom: G
G D
I left my home in Monterey, just another low prospects man
Am Em
I'd rather work in a foundry than put fishes in a can
C G D
I'm thirty-five and I haven't traveled far
Am Em C
And I've spent all my money on this misbegotten car
Bm C
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
G Em C
And this Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
Am G D C G
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
G G7 C A7
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
D G C G D G
But my damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
[Interlude]
G D
I was speeding south on ninety-nine when the manifold started smokin'
Am Em C
I ran her off the shoulder, and now the axle's broken
– G/B D
It made a sound that cracked my heart in half
Am Em C
And with only half a half pint of vodka left
Bm C/A
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
G Em C
And this Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
Am G D C G
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
G G7 C A7
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
D G C G D G
But this damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
G Em C
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
Am G D C G
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
G G7 C A7
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
D G C G D G
But my damn Studebaker keeps on brea-king down again
