A Different Kind of Cool (Unplugged)- Candy and the Corvettes

[Intro] [bright acoustic guitar strumming, clean electric guitar lead riff] [Verse 1] [Candy:] [acoustic guitar, bass, and drums] She knows every Part by name Chrome trims, candy green paint Old machines always stay the same Pocket full of picks and a ten mil socket Takes apart a carburetor by hand She plays a pink six-string in the band The world laughs at what she knows She says "I got weird little goals" But at low tide in the hush She feels like extra luggage [Chorus] [full band, driving energy] So what if I'm crying My brain can't define me [vocal harmonies] I keep on rolling, keep on trying I know this town, I know this sea But some days I don't fit me [Instrumental Break] [electric guitar solo with light overdrive] [Verse 2] [Candy:] [acoustic guitar and bass] Big black-rimmed glasses, short messy black hair Maps in the glovebox crumpled with care She can name each engine's sound But can't always handle a crowd At the track She stands apart, laughing hard with a handbrake heart And she says that's just my way Like it's a code she has to say But underneath that easy grin There's a storm she keeps tucked in [surf inspired floor tom fill and break] [Chorus] [full band] So what if I'm crying, my heart it reminds me [vocal harmonies] Wave after wave, I keep surviving If I look strange, then let it be I'm still learning how to be free [Bridge] [palm-muted electric guitar, building tom tom roll] Last summer she missed the brake Fell hard, got back up straight Wiped the salt, checked the scar Stayed busy fixin' the car... [surf inspired floor tom fill and break] [Chorus] [Candy:] [maximum volume, crashing cymbals] My brain IT defines me My heart it reminds me [vocal harmonies] Wave after wave, I keep surviving If I look strange, let it be AND LET ME BE MEEEEEEE!!! YEEEAAAAHHH OH YEeahhh [Outro] [softly] Like how the tide comes in We don't have to win, we just.... have to live [vocal ad-libs: ah-ah-ah] [final acoustic guitar strum]
