GbDbAbsus Ab,
(Verse)
GbDb
We drove right past
AbsusAb
That no trespassing sign
GbDb
We sat on the tailgate
AbsusAb
And watched the planes take off
(Verse)
GbDb
We thought we had all night
Absus
There was no need to rush
Ab
That's when those cops
Gb
Came pulling up
Db
And I thought
AbsusAb
Man, ain't this some shhhh
(Chorus)
GbDb
Your daddy's gonna kill me
AbsusAb
But if I survive tonight
GbDb
I wouldn't change one thing
AbsusAb
Baby, yeah I know it sounds crazy
Gb
But there was somethin bout the way
Db
The blue lights were shinin
AbsusAb
Bringing out the freedom in your eyes
Gb
I was too busy watching you
Db
Going wild child
AbsusAb
To be worried about going to jail
You were thinking that
Gb
Running for it
Db
Would make a good story
AbsusAb
I was thinking you were crazy as hell
Gb
And you were so Innocent
Db
But you were stealing my heart
AbsusAbGbDbAbsusAb
I fell in love in the back of a cop car
(Verse)
GbDb
Man, they weren't playin
AbsusAb
They sure threw those cuffs on quick
GbDb
You tried to sweet talk 'em
AbsusAb
They didn't fall for it, but I did
GbDb
You were on the left
Absus
I was on the right
Ab
I knew you didn't smoke
Gb
When you asked him for a light
Db
And I laughed
AbsusAb
He got mad and slammed the door
(Chorus)
GbDb
Your daddy's gonna kill me
AbsusAb
But if I survive tonight
GbDb
I wouldn't change one thing
AbsusAb
Baby, yeah I know it sounds crazy

(oh oh oh ooh) oh, and you were like
GbDbAbsusAb

We sat real close
By the time they let us go

I was already gone
