[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]
So come on
| 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
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]
So come on,
| D MajorD
come on,
| C majorC | G+G
don't mean you forget 'em
| 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 ---
