VERSE 1 
 
E 
I was just out of the service thumbin' through the classifieds 
 
A 
When an ad that said old chevy somehow caught my eye 
 
E 
The lady didn't know the year or even if it ran 
 
A                                      B                   E 
But I had that thousand dollars in my hand 
 
 
E 
It was way back in the in corner of this old ramshackle barn 
 
A 
With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp 
 
B                                              A 
When I pulled the cover off it took away my breath 
 
A                                                   B            E 
What she called a chevy was a sixty-six corvette 
 
 
C#m                           B 
I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills 
 
E                                       A                B 
What a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel 
 
E 
I opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note 
 
A                                                            B 
E 
The date was nineteen sixty-six and this is what he wrote 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
   C#m          B          A           B 
My name is private Andrew Malone 
 
   C#m              B               A                    B 
If your reading this then I didn't make it home 
 
             B                             C#m        A 
B 
But for every dream that's shatered another one comes true 
 
         A                        A                               B 
B 
This car was once a dream of mine now it belongs to you 
 
        E                         B                    A 
B 
And though you may take her and make her your own 
 
           A              A    B          B          (repeat intro) 
You'll always be riding with private malone 
 
 
VERSE 2 
 
E 
It didn't take me long at all I had her runnin' good 
 
A 
I loved to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood 
 
E 
I had her shinin' like a diamond and I'd put the rag top down 
 
            A                                                            B 
E 
All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her thruogh town 
 
 
        C#m                                     B 
The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right 
 
       E                                                    A 
B 
But it picked up that oldies show especially late at night 
 
     E 
I'd get the feelin' sometimes if I turned real quick I'd see 
 
     A                                             B 
E 
A soldier riding shotgun in the seat right next to me 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
              C#m                        B           A           B 
It was a young man named private Andrew Malone 
 
         C#m               B                  A                     B 
Who fought for his country and never made it home 
 
             B                             C#m                     A 
B 
But for every dream that's shatered there's another that comes true 
 
         A                         A                   B 
B 
This car was once a dream of his back when it was new 
 
             E               B                     A                    B 
And he told me to take her and make her my own 
 
                  A                  A    B         B          (repeat 
intro) 
And I was proud to be riding with private malone

One night it was raining hard I took a curb to fast 
 
E                                            A                        B 
I still don't remember much about that firey crash 
 
E 
Someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out 
 
A                                                B                        E 
They didn't get his name but I know without a doubt 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
              C#m                        B           A           B

B 
But for every dream that shaters there's another that comes true

This car was once a dream of his back when it was new 
 
          E                        B                   A 
B 
And I know I wouldn't be here if he hadn't tagged along 
 
                 A                A    B          B          (repeat intro) 
Yeah that night I was riding with private malone
