                Em    D              Em   D
She locked her fingers and bowed her head
                E7                   G
She said, "I'm late and I'm really scared"
             Em  B                  Em   D
Now you can go    but I hope you stay
            E7             G
I'm gonna keep  it either way

Chorus:
       G          D              G              D
In my daddy's El Camino in her driveway in the rain
  G                   D                   A
Starin' through that windshield, I could see
            G
my future change
                         D               G
And my heart hit like a hammer, and my thoughts
              Bm
were runnin' wild
     A                                    G
Any fool can make a baby, but it takes a man
             D
to raise a child

I laid my head down on the wheel
She said "I know, I know it don't seem real"
She closed her eyes but the tears flowed through
She said "don't hate me for loving you"

Chorus

      Em
Oh, I could not reassure her,
            D  
I couldn't say what I had planed
          G                           A
Couldn't put three words together, so I just took
her hand

Chorus:
In my daddy's El Camino
In her driveway in the rain
Staring through that windshield
I could see my future change
And my heart hit like a hammer
And my thoughts were running wild
Any fool can make a baby
