Jim Henry - Drive-in Movie Picture Show
CAPO: 6th Fret
[Intro]
C F G C
[Verse 1]
F
Station wagon's full of blankets
G C
Dad's whistling a tune
F
He won't tell us where we're going
G C
He smiles and says we'll be there soon
[Verse 2]
F
There's eight of us if you count Jeffrey
G C
He's barely two, so Mom holds him
F
We're going crazy in the wayback
G C
Fuelled by the Kansas summer wind
[Chorus]
G C
It's two-fifty for the carload
G C
And we park in the front row
F
It's Saturday night
C
We're feeling all right
G C F G C
At the drive-in movie picture show
[Verse 3]
F
There's a double-feature and a playground
G C
And all the popcorn we can eat
F
We place our bets who stays up latest
G C
And our pyjamas all have feet
[Verse 4]
F
Dad hangs a speaker from the window
G C
We can't get him to move his head
F
So we spread some blankets on the gravel
G C
It makes an outdoor movie-watching bed
[Bridge]
F C
When there's kissing on the big screen
Dm G
Fall asleep watching stars up in the sky
[Verse 5]
C F
Next thing that I remember
G C
Mom's tucking me in tight
F
She whispers, "Did you have a good time?"
G C
I say, "Let's go again tomorrow night"
[Chorus]
G C
It's two-fifty for the carload
G C
And we park in the front row
F
It's Saturday night
C
We're feeling all right
G C F G C
At the drive-in movie picture show
[Outro]
F C
It's Saturday and James Bond is playing
