Verse
G5 D
We drove right past
A
That no trespassing sign
G5 D
We sat on the tailgate
A
And watched the planes take off
G5 D
We thought we had all night
There was no need to rush
A G5
That's when those cops came pulling up
D A
And I thought, man, ain't this some shhhh
Pre-Chorus
G5 D A
Your daddy's gonna kill me, but if I survive tonight
G5 D
I wouldn't change one thing
A
Baby, yeah I know it sounds crazy
Chorus
G5 D
But there was somethin' 'bout the way the blue lights were shinin'
A
Bringing out the freedom in your eyes
G5 D
I was too busy watching you going wild child
A
To be worried about going to jail
G5 D
You were thinking that running for it would make a good story
A
I was thinking you were crazy as hell
G5 D
And you were so innocent, but you were stealing my heart
A
I fell in love in the back of a cop car

A
They sure threw those cuffs on quick

You were on the left
I was on the right
A G5
I knew you didn't smoke when you asked him for a light
D A
And I laughed he got mad and slammed the door
Pre-Chorus

I swear your daddy's gonna kill me, but if I survive tonight
