Chords with lyrics
Verse:
C majorC G+G
There's a break in the fence between the sixth and seventh tree
C majorC G+G
Just wide enough to fit an SU- V
C majorC G+G
You can't see it from the river road, it's hidden by the leaves
A minorAm D MajorD
But I'll show you if you promise that you won't say anything
C majorC G+G
Take it easy goin' up, spinnin' tires will get you stuck
C majorC G+G
We'll be right back down at the bottom of the levee
C majorC G+G
Take it even easier goin' down that grass stays muddy all year round
C majorC G+G
But get goin' fast at the path and keep it steady
Bridge
A minorAm D MajorD
I tell my parents we were goin' to the movies, yeah
A minorAm D MajorD
The movie in the middle of the woods
Chorus
G+G
And we were screamin' down the river road
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Smilin' at the fadin' city lights in my rear view
G+G F# minorF#m
Lookin' for the break in the fence
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
That a few of my friends and I took a handsaw to
G+G BB E minorEm D MajorD A minorAm
We had all the right in- gredients for doin' something new
G+G A minorAm
Drank some brews had a great time
D MajorD G+G
Marinatin' in that sweet, sweet southern moon
Instrumental:
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD G+G F# minorF#m E minorEm D MajorD C majorC C majorC
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
She was pristine, I was fifteen, nothing to lose
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
But my vir- ginity and I did right there under that mag- nolia tree
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD G+G
And I don't re- member any- thing, I re- member how she felt
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Lord, I re- member every- thing, I remember it oh so well
Bridge
A minorAm D MajorD
And I see her now runnin' barefoot down the driveway
A minorAm D MajorD
Jumpin' in my front seat in those faded old PJ's
Chorus
G+G
We were screamin' down the river road
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Smilin' at the fadin' city lights in my rear view
G+G F# minorF#m E minorEm
Lookin' for the place she feels safe, not a soul around
D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
lay a little blanket down... woo woo woo
G+G BB E minorEm D MajorD A minorAm
We had all the right in- gredients for doin' something new
G+G A minorAm
Made my move revved her upright
D MajorD G+G
Marinatin' in that sweet, sweet southern moon

Haven't been here in a few years
A minorAm D MajorD G+G E minorEm
So, I brought a- long this old gui- tar and a few beers
A minorAm D MajorD
Guess I had a feelin'
A minorAm D MajorD
I'd write a song, sittin' here I can hear that river echo
A minorAm D MajorD
With the memories I'm glad I have, I will never let go of
Chorus

Screamin' down the river road
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Smilin' at the fadin' city lights in my rear view

Smokin' joints down by the river, stoned and laughin' under
