Diner  Martin Sexton

Similar to some other tabs, but this sounds more correct to me. The C-Am is a quick five
on the C (down, up, down, up, down), four strums on the Am (down, up, down, up). Should
played briskly, like a Les Paul kind of thing.
Capo: 6th Fret
[C-Am]You mii[C-Am]iight ha[C-Am]ve seen[C-Am] one out in Minnesota
[C-Am]Or mayb[C-Am]eeee dow[C-Am]n by th[C-Am]e sea in Sarasota
[F]But they were made back in[Dm] Worcester Mass
[F]Of aluminum and [Dm]Bakelite and glass [C-Am] mmm-hmm
[C-Am]Liiiike[C-Am] a locom[C-Am]otive t[C-Am]hey were streamlines
[C-Am]And the[C-Am] blue-oo[C-Am]ooh pri[C-Am]nts were drawn up from a dream of mine
[F]Slap 'em up put 'em [Dm]on the train
[F]Out to Michigan [Dm]up to Maine[C-Am] Ah-oooh
Em ...
You may find a diner down in Georgia or
Carolina off the twenty by the piggly wiggly
In the country out of [F]Waynsboro
Em ...
Or when it's getting late and rainy out in New York State
You hang a louie off the thru-way
And you go and grab yourself a [F]cheeseburger
At the little gem [G]diner off the six niner
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C-Am]love
[Dm]In the night you're all I'm thinking [C-Am]of
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C-Am]love
[C-Am]The cru[C-Am]i-ooh-oo[C-Am]h-ser p[C-Am]ulls in where the troopers always stop
[C-Am]As we d[C-Am]iiine ov[C-Am]er the [C-Am]chrome and formica table top
[F]The cashier she alwa[Dm]ys squints
[F]By the gum and the b[Dm]owl of mints
[C-Am]She's tapping her toe
[F]To the Dean Martin o[Dm]n the consolette
[F]Booth service and a [Dm]cigarette we're loving it so
Em ...
Side of fries a dollar
Or the haddock plate two ninety five
A rootbeer float a pepsi
And be sure to save some room for s[F]ome apple pie
[Em]La da di da .... (go nuts scatting here)
Better make it a-l[F]a-mode
Chorus
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C]love
[Dm]In the night you're all I'm thinking [C]of
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C]love
[F]Dean Martin god rest[Dm] his soul
[F]Talkin' to me from t[Dm]he cereal bowl
[F]There's a couple fro[Dm]m the show me state
[F]Knockin' back a litt[Dm]le meatloaf plate
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C-Am]love.
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C-Am]love.
[F]Diner my [G]shiny shiny [C-Am]shiny love.
