(No Capo)
Intro.: |(A augmentedA)(B minorBm)|(G+G)(D MajorD)| x 2
A augmentedA B minorBm
Me and Teddy used to burn that old Chevy
G+G D MajorD
All the way up to Mary Lee's
A augmentedA B minorBm
One of the guy's kinda ride or die
G+G D MajorD
And we were thick as thieves
A augmentedA B minorBm
The whole damn town said when we come around,
G+G D MajorD
We're as mean as a four letter word
A augmentedA B minorBm
Up to no good, no we didn't have much
G+G D MajorD
Just a whole lotta time to burn
(Chorus)
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
So if we got high, we got stoned
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a fire, we got it on
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a backseat, we made love
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
That was then and that was us
Solo: |(A augmentedA)(B minorBm)|(G+G)(D MajorD)| x 2
A augmentedA B minorBm
We crossed the county line for a kegger one night
G+G D MajorD
There were some girls we had never seen
A augmentedA B minorBm
Teddy had his eye locked on a dime
G+G D MajorD
Mary said she was lookin' at me
A augmentedA B minorBm
Standin' there sippin' on smoke
G+G D MajorD
And a cheap ass bottle of wine
A augmentedA B minorBm
She said, "My name's Kate, you're my kinda crazy
G+G D MajorD
And it takes one to know one"
(Chorus)
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
So if we got high, we got stoned
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a fire, we got it on
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a backseat, we made love
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
That was then and that was us
Solo: |(A augmentedA)(B minorBm)|(G+G)(D MajorD)| x 2
A augmentedA B minorBm
Mary Lee started hangin', started talkin'
G+G D MajorD
With a boy with a checkered past
A augmentedA
It wasn't long be-(B minorBm)fore he showed his true colors
G+G D MajorD
And he left her all blue and black
A augmentedA B minorBm
Cops stopped us runnin' ninety
G+G D MajorD
With a loaded pistol and a bottle of booze
A augmentedA B minorBm
And it's a good damn thing the blue lights
G+G D MajorD
Got us 'fore we'd get what we'd goin' to
(Chorus)
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
So if we got high, we got stoned
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a fire, we got it on
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
If there was a backseat, we made love
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
That was then and that was us
A augmentedA B minorBm
If we got high, yeah, you know we're gonna roll it up
G+G D MajorD
If we got high, yeah, you know we got stoned
A augmentedA B minorBm
If there was a fight then you know we're gonna back 'em up
G+G D MajorD
If there was a fight, we got it on
(Tag)
A augmentedA B minorBm
In the back of the seat, you know we got tangled up
G+G D MajorD
In the back of the seat, you know we made love
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
That was then and that's still us, well, come on
