Come and look at this old faded photograph.
D E A
Honey, tell me what it brings to mind?

It's a picture of that '57 Chevrolet.

I wish that we could ride it one more time.

I still get excited when I think about,
D E A
the drive-in picture shows you took me to.
A E A
But I don't recall a lot about the movie stars,
D E A
mostly that old Chevrolet and you.
CHORUS:
D E A
They don't make cars like they used to.

I wish we still had it today.

The love we first tasted, the good love we're
D A D E A
still living..we owe it to that old '5-7 Chevrolet.

A
Remember when we used to park it in the lane, and
D E A
listen to the country radi-o?
A
We'd hold on to each other while the singer sang.
D E A
And we'd stay like that 'til it was time to go.
#4.
A
Now, it makes me sad to think the good old days
are gone.
D E A
Although our love is still as strong today.
A
But the world would have a lot more lovers hanging on,
D E A
if they still made '5-7 Chevrolets.
CHORUS:
D E A
They don't make cars like they used to.
D E A
I wish we still had it today.
D E A
The love we first tasted, the good love we're
D A D E A
still living..we owe it to that old '5-7 Chevrolet.
