• Capo on 3rd

Capo 3

Intro: (x2)
D MajorD G+G

Verse:
 D MajorD              G+G
Look at that worn out rusty engine
 D MajorD              G+G
Sitting there begging for a spark
                 D MajorD
Don't look like much in that con- dition
                 A augmentedA
But there was a time you should've seen her run
 D MajorD              G+G
Down every back road in Lyle County
 D MajorD               G+G
Under every streetlight up on Main
                D MajorD
You sitting there drumming on a dashboard
             A augmentedA
Both of us falling like a fickle rain

Chorus:
 D MajorD    C majorC
We were cooler than December
 G+G              D MajorD
Hotter than July, young and strong
         C majorC
Some things aren't meant to last forever
    G+G                   D MajorD
But that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone

Solo:
D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD

Verse:
 D MajorD              C majorC
She had hair tangled as the kudzu, legs as long as the trails
  G+G                       D MajorD
That cut through those back acres to the river bend
                     C majorC
She had her daddy's temper and her momma's flair, made people talk
      G+G                    D MajorD
But did not care, try anything once ain't scared of nothing

Chorus:
   D MajorD    C majorC
Yeah, we were cooler than December
 G+G              D MajorD
Hotter than July, young and strong
           C majorC
And some things aren't meant to last forever
    G+G                   D MajorD
But that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone

Solo:
D MajorD      C majorC G+G              D MajorD

Bridge:
 G+G              A augmentedA
I still ride down those old roads
         D MajorD
Even if it's in my mind
              B minorBm
Tight blue jeans and winding curves
          G+G             A augmentedA
Keep me turning on a dime, yeah, just like the time ---

Verse:
  D MajorD    C majorC
When we were cooler than December
 G+G              D MajorD
Hotter than July, young and strong
         C majorC
Some things aren't meant to last forever
    G+G                   D7/C
But that don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone
  D MajorD    C majorC
Oh, we were cooler than December,
 G+G              D MajorD
Hotter than July, young and strong
         C majorC
Some things aren't meant to last forever
    G+G
But that don't mean you forget 'em when they're

Tag:
 C majorC          G+G          D MajorD
Don't mean you for- get 'em when they're gone
      G+G
So come on, come on
                   D MajorD
Don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone
 D MajorD        G+G
So come on, come on
                   D MajorD
Don't mean you forget 'em when they're gone
      G+G    D MajorD
