        G
Going through my closet the other day
         D/F#
Found an old yearbook, flipped right to the page
        Am               G/B           C
Of that senior trip down there on that Panama strip
        G
We all started yelling when we smelled the beach
D/F#
Couldn't wait to try our fake IDs
        Am                     G/B           C
We only had a few days, and a whole lot of memories to make


Chorus
    G                       D/F#
Oh man we were livin', didn't waste one minute
    Am                 G/B                 C
We talked and drank and danced and said goodbye
      D              G    C - G/B - G
We laughed until we cried


This past year my family
Was sittin' cross-legged 'round the Christmas tree
Listening to granddad, we all knew it'd probably be his last
He was crackin' jokes and we were takin' turns 
Telling stories 'bout fishing or lessons learned
Out on the porch with him we all felt like kids again


2nd chorus
   G                         D/F#
Oh man we were livin', sittin' there reminiscin'
   Am                 G/B                C
We sang and talked and traveled back in time
           D         C
We laughed until we cried


Instrumental
C - G/B - Am - G/B - C


Bridge
D
It's like the best days under the sun
 C
Every emotion rolled into one
Am                G/B
A little of this, a little of that
C                      C - G/B - G
Kinda happy, kinda sad


Just the other night the baby was cryin'
So I got out of bed rocked her awhile 
And I held her tight and I told her it would be all right
My mind went back to a few years ago
We tried so long, we almost gave up hope
And I remember you comin' in and tellin' me the news


Chorus
   G                         D/F#
Oh man we were livin', goin' crazy in the kitchen
   Am                      G/B              C
We danced and screamed and held each other tight
           D           G - D/F# - Am - C
We laughed until we cried

Am       G           Am                 G
 Looking back, at the dead ends and the detours,
Am                  G                     Dsus-D
 All I could do was long for a straighter line,
Am      G          Am          G
 I was lost, I had no way of knowin'
           Am                    G           Dsus-D
Where the twists and turns were going but sometimes,

Gotta let the road wind,

I believe, things happen  for a reason,
     Am                   G              Dsus-D
Even though you might not see it, at the time,
Am          G           Am             G
Cause now I know, every plan that came unraveled
      Am             G               Dsus-D
Every crooked path I traveled, In my life,
               Am
Led me here to your side

                    Am
Yea I finally found You.....

Sun has opened up my eyes,

and I don't want to leave your side,
                   C                G
For that lonesome road, but here I go, 

Climbing back behind the wheel, 
                              D
of 50 ft of chrome and steel inload,
                 C

Verse 2

Sometimes late at night, 
I see your picture by the dashboard light,
and it takes me, where I'd like to be,
wrapped up in a blanket there, 
pullin ribbons from your hair,
and your kiss, girl that's what I miss,


Still I drive these horses through the rain and snow,
This high speed rodeo is all I know,



(chorus)
        G         D     Em
I'm an asphalt, Cowboy, born to run underneath the stars,

I just ride, ride,    till I'm back in your arms again,
Em                  D       C
    I'll be out here on the wind,
          G     D
And I'll ride,
Em                       (G)    C
    till I'm back in your arms again,

There's still black marks on that county road,
                           D
Where we drag raced our pickups, and mustangs
       G               C      G
And weathered on the summer rain
D                           G
And to this day up on that overpass, 
                    D
Even underneath the new paint, you can still see
 G               C     G
"Allie will you marry me?"

There's still a rope burn on that old branch, that hangs over the river,
                               G             C         G
I still got the scars, from swinging out a little too far

There ain't a corner of this hallowed ground,

It's everything we're made of

Like tattoos on this town

Verse:

Am              G                    F
Somedays it's tough just gettin' up
Am              G                    F
Throwin' on these boots and makin' that climb
Am              G                    F
Somedays I'd rather be a no show lay low
Am              G                    F
Before I got outta my mind.


Chorus:

through my hair and saves me.
         Am                              G                                     F

When she says baby.
                     Am              G                    F
Oh when she says baby.


Verse:

Am              G                    F
Some night I come home fightin' mad
Am              G                    F
Feel like runnin' my fist through a wall.
Am              G                    F
Is it even worth it what I'm fightin' for anymore feelin'
Am              G                    F
Torn all the hell with it all.


Chorus:

But when she say baby,
         Am                              G                                     F
Oh no matter what comes ain't goin' no where she runs her fingers 
                                Am              G                    F
through my hair and saves me.

Yea she the perfect shot of faith.
Am              G                    F
When every bit of mine is gone.
Am              G                    F
Somethin' I could believe in a best friend
Am              G                    F
And heavens send a love to lean on.

When She Says Baby

Night Train

Em                           C
You slip your finger through the tear in my t-shirt
                G                     D
You stirrin' up dirty in the back of my mind
            Em
You keep on flirtin'
                         C
Cause you know that it's workin'
                   G                 D
You stuck in my head girl writing the lines
Em                                C
Couldn't sing this song without you if I tried
G                             D
Let's light it up like it's our last night


CHORUS

Em                   C
We're just hanging around
            G
Burnin' it down
                D
Sippin' on some cold Jack Daniel's
Em                      C
Jammin' to some old Alabama with you baby
       G           D
Laying right here naked in my bed
Em                C
I'm just doing my thing
                   G
You love it when I sing
                 D
Say it makes you feel like an angel
Em                      C                      G
We about to get a little tangled up right about now
   D                       Em
So girl let's keep burnin' it down
           C
Burnin' it down
           G              D
Burnin' it down


VERSE 2

              Em
Girl when you want it
                  C
You know that I'm on it
                G                  D
You know that I love lovin' up on you
Em                              C
Let's hit the switch and let our shadows dance
G                           D
And light it up like it's our last chance

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah,

I'm going where the people know my name

I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count

D                             A                             Bm

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

Fast Car

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
