Chords with lyrics
VERSE 1:
D MajorD
Dented cars make me think of you
G+G D MajorD
sitting on a red leather stool
G+G D MajorD B minorBm
drinking with your sunglasses on
A augmentedA G+G
at the bowling alley bar.
VERSE 2:
D MajorD
And the sound of the crashing pins
G+G D MajorD
behind us when we kissed
G+G D MajorD B minorBm
the night I wrecked my father's car
A augmentedA G+G (G/F#)
behind the bowling alley bar.
PRE-CHORUS:
E minorEm G+G
I'm so sorry Donna,
A augmentedA
sorry about your sunglasses.
E minorEm G+G
I didn't mean to step on them;
A augmentedA
I didn't mean to laugh when you cried.
CHORUS:
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
'Cause it was ne-ver a waste of time
G+G D MajorD
to drink beer by your side
G+G B minorBm D MajorD
and watch the fallen pins
A augmentedA G+G
set up right again.
INTERLUDE:
D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
VERSE 3:
D MajorD
Skinny girls in tight red jeans
G+G D MajorD
kicking cigarette machines;
G+G D MajorD B minorBm
that old woman all alone
A augmentedA G+G (F#/G)
dirty dancing by the phones.
PRE-CHORUS:
E minorEm (F#/G) G+G
Driving circles at 3am,
A augmentedA
throwing rocks at mailboxes,
E minorEm (F#/G) G+G
you could never see the stars
A augmentedA
with those plastic sunglasses on.
CHORUS:
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
But it was ne-ver a waste of time
G+G D MajorD
to get drunk by your side
G+G B minorBm D MajorD
and watch the fallen pins
A augmentedA G+G
set up right again.
