Chords with lyrics
E minorEm (palm muted)
plymouth satellite a’ flyin’ near the speed a’ sound
got the windows down and the wheels a’ risin’
clean up off the ground
E minorEm (palm muted)
flood lights from the jailhouse shining
‘cross the mustard fields
some a’ them boys
i used to run with some a’ them are in there still
G+G C/GC/G
flyin’ down the back roads
A9A9 E minorEm
like the last and only one
G+G C9C9
when you’re seventeen and wild
A9A9 E minorEm
boy you’re like a loaded gun
E minorEm (palm muted)
don’t know what i’m runnin’ from not sure where i’m goin’
just seems like the world around me’s moving awful slow
so you drink it down and you go devour everything you touch
my tank down on empty got no time though to fill it up
G+G C/GC/G
flyin’ down the back roads
A9A9 E minorEm
like the last and only one
G+G C9C9
when you’re seventeen and wild
A9A9 E minorEm
boy you’re like a loaded gun
E minorEm (palm muted)
huck finn in a plymouth flying near the speed a’ light
two-lane highway to myself there’s nothin’ like a summer night
when you’re still a kid but things ya did you’re lucky just to be alive
G+G C/GC/G
flyin’ down the back roads
A9A9 E minorEm
like the last and only one
G+G C9C9
when you’re seventeen and wild
A9A9 E minorEm
boy you’re like a loaded gun
G+G C/GC/G
flyin’ down the back roads
A9A9 E minorEm
in a race I never won
G+G C9C9
when you’re seventeen and wild
A9A9 E minorEm
