F Bb                                 
■ ■  Maybellene why can't you be true
   Eb                          Bb  
Oh Maybellene why can't you be true
F7                                       Bb        
You've started back doin' the things you used to do
   Bb                            
As I was motivatin' over the hill
      Bb                          
I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville
  Bb                                
A Cadillac arollin' on the open road
Bb                                
Nothin' will outrun my Veight Ford
                         Bb        
The Cadillac doin' about ninetyfive
                       F7                  
She's bumper to bumper rollin' side by side
Bb                              
Maybellene Why can't you be true
   Bb7                  Bb         
Oh Maybellene why can't you be true
F7                                       Bb        
You've started back doin' the things you used to do
Bb                                      
The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford
    Bb                                  
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
                                  Bb  
It then got cloudy and started to rain
         Bb                        
I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
    Bb                                 
The rainwater blowin' all under my hood
       Bb                            
I know that I was doin' my motor good
                     F           Bb
Maybellene Why can't you be true ■ 
   Eb                   Bb7    Bb  
Oh Maybellene why can't you be true
F                   F7                   Bb        
You've started back doin' the things you used to do

[Verse]
   Bb        
Oh Maybellene
          Bb7        
Why can't you be true
                        Bb         
Oh Maybellene why can't you be true
F7                                       Bb        
You've started back doin' the things you used to do
                                    Bb  
The motor cooled down the heat went down
                                     Bb   
And that's when I heard that highway sound
                                    Bb  
The Cadillac asittin' like a ton of lead
                                     Bb                                          
A hundred and ten half a mile aheadv The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
Bb                                           
And I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill
                     Bb7        
Maybellene Why can't you be true
   Eb                   Bb         
Oh Maybellene why can't you be true
F                   F7                        Bb   
You've started back doin' the things you used to do
