PONTIAC  (Fred Eaglesmith)

The chords to this are essentially just E and C#, however the chorus works better with an Eminor from the 7th fret.  I recommend playing the full chords, not power chords, if playing this acoustically.  Also, when this song gets going, try playing A7/B7 (Johnny Cash style), instead of the C-it's a nice modification.

Intro
E  C#  E  C#

E
It's a Pontiac
C#                                                E
It's a '63 Stratochief with a three on the tree
             C#
And it belongs to me
  E                             C#
And my baby
E
Her and me
             C#				E
We go driving down old highway seventeen
		C#
She puts on the radio
		E
Rolls down the window
		C#
Lays her head back
		E
It's a Pontiac


E				         C#
It ain't got no wild horses painted on the side
	   E				C#
And the objects in the mirror are precisely their own size
E			       C#
It's got a chrome Indian in front of the door

E			      C#
Might be an Apache or an Arapaho
E				C#			E			C#
Or a Pontiac

chorus
Em
There was an incident last night
C#
At seventeen and third
    Em			      C#			
It all happened so fast nobody's really sure
    Em			                  C#
But somebody held the rifle, somebody held the sack
E
And as fast as they were there
		    C#
Well they were gone just like that
E			C#			E			C#
In a Pontiac

E				      C#
The anti-freeze is boiling and the oil pressure's low
	E				     C#                  
And the pedal's to the metal and it's as fast as it can go
	     E				    C#                    
And the stain on her shoulder I getting darker you know
              E				C#
And the radio keep blasting out the facts
E			C#			E			C#
It's a Pontiac
