Intro -2x-: F#  C#  G#     G#

Verse:
F#        C#
 We drove right past
G#       G#
 That no trespassing sign
F#            C#
 We sat on the tailgate
G#               G#
 And watched the planes take off

Verse:
F#                     C#
 We thought we had all night
                     G#
There was no need to rush
                  G#
That's when those cops
             F#
Came pulling up
    C#
And I thought
G#                   G#
Man, ain't this some shhhh

Chorus:
                   F#      C#
Your daddy's gonna kill me
       G#          G#
But if I survive tonight
                  F#        C#
I wouldn't change one thing
G#                          G#
Baby, yeah I know it sounds crazy
              F#
But there was somethin bout the way
    C#
The blue lights were shinin
G#                          G#
Bringing out the freedom in your eyes
      F#
I was too busy watching you
C#
Going wild child
      G#                     G#
To be worried about going to jail

You were thinking that
F#
Running for it
C#
 Would make a good story
      G#                         G#
I was thinking you were crazy as hell
                F#
And you were so Innocent
C#
 But you were stealing my heart
G#                     G#                F# C# G#    G#
 I fell in love in the back of a cop car

Verse:
F#         C#
 Man, they weren't playin
G#                     G#
 They sure threw those cuffs on quick
F#            C#
 You tried to sweet talk 'em
G#           G#
 They didn't fall for it, but I did
F#               C#
 You were on the left
             G#
I was on the right
                  G#
I knew you didn't smoke
         F#
When you asked him for a light
    C#
And I laughed
   G#                  G#
He got mad and slammed the door

-oh oh oh ooh-          oh, and you were like
F#  C#  G#     G#

Bridge:
Side by side

And locked in tight

They were taking their time

But we didn't mind

We talked

And we laughed

We sat real close

By the time they let us go
              F#   C#
I was already gone
