Verse 1:

D MajorD       G+G           D MajorD G+G
You told your folks you were leaving
D MajorD     G+G         D MajorD  G+G
We hit the road that evening
D MajorD      G+G        D MajorD G+G
The rusted key to the hotel

Unlocked your heart and mine as well

Pre-Chorus 1:

E minorEm
From the curb to the backseats

Oh, baby, we were kidding ourselves alright

The lipstick heart around our names

From the bed that we dreamt in
