They drive this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of
D
Burned-out Chevrolets They scream your name at night in the street

And in the lonely cool before dawn you hear their engines roaring on
          D          E              A           D   E
Until you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind so Mary climb in
