One Day At A Time chords by Deana Carter

Intro:
G

Verse:
 G
I've got a friend who wears go-go boots to Sunday School


We used to sit and drink pink champagne on a tin roof
   C
Ridin' it out in a Thunderbird

                                              G
Singin' out loud every single word of Jack & Diane

Tryin' to pretend there was no rules
   D
Kissin' on boys and sneakin' in bars

                                    Am
Tryin' to get a glimpse of who we are

  D                                   C
We weren't wild, but we weren't far


Chorus:
             G           Am                 C             D
She said Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me

              G                C                D       C
And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line

             G                Am                        C              D
Thanks to Elvis and Kurt Cobain, the world will never be the same

                   C           D          G      Bm    G
You gotta make history one day at a time


Verse:
 G
She graduated in 1987


We were gonna make a break for it together
   C
Headed out to Hollywood


Where the stars are bright and the weather's good
           G
But she changed her mind and went back to the 7-11

  D
She went and married the football star

                              Am
Had few kids and works real hard

 D                             C
It ain't wild but it ain't far


Chorus:
 B                 A          E
Way too much to feel the danger

 B                 A            E
Way too much to shield his heart

 B                 A            E
Too far gone to ever wanna change her

 E                B     A
Cause he loves her way too much

         E
Way too much

        G             Am                C          D
Hey, Thelma and Louise, you got nothin' on me

              G                C                D
And you can tell ol' James Dean to get in line

   C           G                                     C              D
Thanks to Jesus and John Wayne the world will never be the same

                     C            D          G
You've gotta make history one day at a time

Like John Lennon and Kennedy


I'm with them, yeah, 'cause I believe
                   Am7                    G
You gotta make history one day at a time
