	  		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
