CAPO: NONE
[Intro]
Bm A D G
Bm A D G
[Verse]
Bm A D G
I got a souped-up ride, and I really wanna ride you 'round
Bm A D G
And this time of night, there ain't no red lights out
Bm A
We got a good, long stretch of road
D G
To see how fast this thing'll go
Bm A D
But that shoulder on the side's lookin' mighty fine right now
[Chorus]
G Bm A D
I can drive you from this holler to Hollywood
G Bm A D
Got like 700 horses under the hood
G Bm
But I can't hold you at this high speed
A D
And you look good in that side seat
G Bm A D
While we makin' these tires scream in this old car
G Bm A D
All I wanna do is park
G A Bm A D G
And all I wanna do is park
[Verse]
Bm A D G
We can burn this old dirt road like a racetrack
Bm A D G
Or we can turn the key and let the seats lay way back
Bm A
Count the midnight windshield stars
D G
Watch the sunrise in my arms
Bm A D
If we don't go nowhere, girl, I wouldn't hate that
[Chorus]
G Bm A D
I can drive you from this holler to Hollywood
G Bm A D
Got like 700 horses under the hood
G Bm
But I can't hold you at this high speed
A D
And you look good in that side seat
G Bm A D
While we makin' these tires scream in this old car
G Bm A D
All I wanna do is park
G A Bm A
And all I wanna do is park
D G Bm Bm A D
Honey, yeah-yeah-yeaaaah
G Bm
[Break]
A D G Bm
Mm, the way you lookin' in that glow, 'bout to go crazy
A D G Bm
Wanna cut that engine, kiss you slow, baby, oh, baby
[Chorus]
(G) Bm A D
I can drive you from this holler to Hollywood
G Bm A E
Got like 700 horses under the hood
(G) Bm
But I can't hold you at this high speed
A D
And you look good in that side seat
G Bm A D
While we makin' these tires scream in this old car
G Bm A D
All I wanna do is park
G Bm
And all I wanna do is park
[Outro}
A D
(All I wanna do is)
G Bm A D
{Pull this thing right over, ah ah)
G Bm
(All I wanna do is)
A D G
Pull this thing on o-ver
How to play "Park" by Tyler Hubbard on guitar
This song does not require a capo and features a mix of major and minor chords
that give it a heartfelt and spirited country rock vibe. The progression
includes Bm, A, D, and G, which helps drive the narrative of a romantic country
drive that turns into a longing for closeness.
Chords used: Bm, A, D, G
Playing Style:
- The intro and verses use a dynamic strumming pattern that alternates between
Bm, A, D, and G. This combination provides a lively rhythm that captures the
excitement and freedom of driving on open roads at night.
- Strum with energy during the verses to match the narrative of speeding down
the road, and then transition into a more relaxed, intimate strumming pattern
for the chorus to reflect the romantic turn in the lyrics.
Common Mistakes:
- Not maintaining a consistent strumming pattern can disrupt the song's flow.
Keep the rhythm steady and ensure that transitions between chords are smooth
and timely.
- Bm can be challenging for beginners due to its barre chord nature. Ensure that
you're pressing down firmly across all the required frets to avoid any buzzing
sounds.
Transitions:
- Pay close attention to the shift from the verse to the chorus. This change
should feel like a natural yet noticeable shift in the song's dynamics,
reflecting the lyrical shift from driving fast to wanting to stop and savor
the moment.
Lyrics meaning:
"Park" tells the story of a couple enjoying a drive, with the narrator
eventually expressing a desire to stop the car and cherish the moment together.
It's a metaphor for slowing down to enjoy life's special moments, particularly
those shared with someone you love.
Remember:
- Ensure your guitar is tuned correctly to achieve the best sound quality,
especially important when playing without a capo.
- Connect emotionally with the song's themes of freedom and romance. Let your
playing express the joy of the narrative and the introspective moments of the
chorus to enhance the overall emotional impact of your performance.
