Jamie's in love
C Dm Bb G C
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
C Dm Bb C
She turns it up

And he says girl you better hold on tight
G D
'Cause this is the real thing

Love changes everything

This is the night when every heart's exploding
D
The real thing
A
Slow down it's happening
G
'Cause you got time to burn in the heat of the moment
D
That summer radio
A
Fireworks off the patio
G G
A 3 AM string of green lights in a row
D
And the real thing
A
Love can change anything
D A G
If you can just let go (let's go!)
