Biography:

John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation.

[Intro]
D x4

[Verse 1]
D
Whatever you don't follow that shot,
D
she rang those words out with all she got
D
With a baby and the laundry in the Chevrolet,
D
well he thought about following anyway
D
But he drove 'em to the strip mall laundromat,
D
In his three day beard and his red man hat
D
Trudy washed their bell bottom jeans,
D
while that baby just sat there lookin' mean

[Chorus]
G D
Trudy and Dave
G D
They're out of their minds
G D
Trudy and Dave
G A D
They're out of their minds

[Verse 2]
G D
Well David put a match to a Lucky Strike
D
And the smoke curled up 'round his head how he liked,
D
It made him feel a little mysterious
D
'Til Trudy said "David honey, what about us?"
D
So he thought about them and those shots ringing out
D
And other things he shouldn't be thinking about
D
Like how it wasn't them at all, just life that was mean
D
And how a twenty dollar pistol made him feel so clean
D
Didn't mean to do it baby, but they did it for love

[Bridge]
Bm G A
The same shot his Daddy heard before him
Bm G A
A shot that can really blow you away
Bm G A
And when it is fired his mama told him
Bm G A D
"David, you'll follow it to your grave"

[Verse 3]
D
Well Trudy and Dave, those crazy kids
D
Had a baby of their own and you heard what they did
D
In the middle of a strip mall shots rang out
D
Shots heard all over the world no doubt

[Verse 4]
D
'Cause it was there in the paper the very next day
D
'Bout a couple and a baby and a Chevrolet
D
Who shot up an automatic teller machine
D
Took the money for the laundry and drove away clean

[Outro]
D
Man, they’re crazy
D
But they did it for love
