Cast Iron Filter - Gas Station Queen guitar chord

Gas Station Queen

By Cast Iron Filter

D Bm A

D G A

D

Well, she works in a place with a busted pump

Bm A

And a sign that says beer off ice

D

And she drives a dump truck that she borrowed from her brother

G A

With plates that read, "Big Guns"

D

And I'm always extra nice when I knock on her door

Bm A

Cause he's tried to kill me three times before

D G A

And I ain't to sure how much faster I can run

Well, I know she's smart cause she skipped a year

When she was working through beauty school

And she laughs and tells me jokes that we'll soon be rich

While she's sitting on her Exxon stool

And I don't quite know what she's waiting for

She's got a big coat hanger and she needs a few more

To hold her hubcaps on when she hits the bumps by the pool

Chorus:

G A Bm A

And even after all these years who knows just what went wrong

G A Bm A

I sit awake in my bed at night and put minor chords in my songs

G A Bm D

And each time I fill my tank, I'm looking up with hopes to see

G A D

Sweet Alicia, the Gas Station Queen

The eleven rings on the ten of her fingers

Make impressions in the wheel cause she grips so tight

I sitting in the back on top of the speakers

Cause the spring popped out the other seat last night

The salty sweet air at the end of the pier

A starry night and maybe one last beer

I'm laughing cause you make big dippers out of all the stars

Though there wasn't much more for me to warn her

When she said Dunkin' Donuts is a restaurant

Let's go somewhere, but we don't wanna go too far

Chorus

I liked the sand that blew in my hair

You knew we never left the beach caused we smelled the air

Pulled up the waves to the water almost bonfires

Throwing shadows all along the coast

Some days I don't know quite who you are

You almost dropped me cold cause I drove a jap car

And your daddy didn't make it back home safe after the war

Now you whisper in my ear as you're squeezing me tight

"You ever dance with the devil in the pale moon light?"

And I'm looking at a face I never have seen before

Chorus
