Kicked up blowing

Dust clouds a rolling

Gas tank low

When we saw neon glowing

Girls like us

Seen a couple pick—ups parked outside
 D
Didn't see we crossed state lines

 A
Same red necks
      C
Like all the guys I knew
      D
Same coal dust smell

Same black tar too

 Am
What came next
      C
Just doesn't sound true

But if it happened to me

It could happen to you, yeah

Something 'bout the way his eyes met mine

Told me what was on his mind

Boys be boys though

They see a pretty face

They can't say "no"

    Am
No blue dust devil
       C
In no rebel bar
          D
With the whiskey flowing

Ain't ever gotten far, no

 A   C
Ooo ooo
 D
Honey, don't get hung up on the details
 A   C
Ooo ooo
 D
Don't get hung up on your cause

Some might call it reckless
 C
Some might call it fate

Or girls like that

You don't let get away, no

All I know is when his eyes met mine

Get me to the church on time
