Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

Charlie drives a brand new Mercedes Benz

 He's got another one just like it, just like all his friends

 His wife is playing tennis and his kids are off at school

 He drives home to his empty house, sits by his empty swimmin' pool

Chorus 1

 But he's got power windows

 He's got power brakes

 He's got a power bed, push a button and it shakes

 He's got no one to talk to and tears rollin' down his face

He ain't got the pow-er of love

Repeat Intro x 2

The power of love

Verse 2

Louis drives a beat-up '69 Dart

 (He) swears it's the statue of Mary that keeps the car from fallin' apart

 With Gracie right beside him sittin' closer than a smile

 She's got her head on his shoulder - He loves to drive and hold her

Chorus 2

 He got no power windows

 Got no power brakes

 He ain't got no power nothin' but he's got what it takes

 He's got Gracie's arms around him and a smile on his face

He's got the pow-er of love

Bridge

No air condition, no cellular telephone

 He goes rumblin' down the highway listenin' to his AM radio

One arm out the window and a smile upon his face

 Makes you wonder how it got there 'til you see him look at Grace

N.C.See him look at Grace

Interlude

He's got the power - Ain't that the power of love

He's got the power - Ain't that the power of love

He's got the power - Ain't that the power of love

He's got the power - Ain't that the...
