[Intro]
E B G#m F# 2x
[Verse]
E B
We drove right past
G#m F#
That no trespassing sign
E B
We sat on the tailgate
G#m F#
And watched the planes take off
E B
We thought we had all night
G#m
There was no need to rush
F#
That's when those cops
E
Came pulling up
B
And I thought
G#m F#
Man, ain't this some....
[Pre-chorus]
E B
Your daddy's gonna kill me
G#m F#
But if I survive tonight
E B
I wouldn't change one thing
G#m
Baby, yeah
F#
I know it sounds crazy
[Chorus]
E
But there was somethin' bout the way
B
The blue lights were shinin'
G#m F#
Bringing out the freedom in your eyes
E
I was too busy watching you
B
Going wild child
G#m F#
To be worried about going to jail
You were thinking that
E
Running for it
B
Would make a good story
G#m F#
I was thinking you were crazy as hell
And you were so
E
Innocent
B
But you were stealing my heart
G#m F#
I fell in love in the back of a cop car
[Interlude]
E B G#m F#
[Verse]
E B
Man, they weren't playin'
G#m F#
They sure threw those cuffs on quick
E B
You tried to sweet talk 'em
G#m F#
They didn't fall for it, but I did
E B
You were on the left
G#m
I was on the right
F#
I knew you didn't smoke
E
When you asked him for a light
B
And I laughed
G#m F#
He got mad and slammed the door
[Pre-chorus]
E B
I swear your daddy's gonna kill me
G#m F#
But if I survive tonight
E B
I wouldn't change one thing
G#m
Baby, yeah
F#
I know it sounds crazy
[Chorus]
E
But there was somethin' bout the way

[Interlude]
E B G#m F# 2x
[Bridge]
E
Side by side
B
And locked in tight
G#m
They were taking their time
F#
But we didn't mind
E
We talked and we laughed
B
We sat real close
G#m F#
By the time they let us go
[Solo]
E B G#m F#
I was already gone
E B G#m F#
[Chorus]
E
But there was somethin' bout the way
B
The blue lights were shinin'
