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

Gm F
I fell in love in the back of a cop car
[Interlude]
D# A# Gm F 2x
[Bridge]
D#
Side by side
A#
And locked in tight
Gm
They were taking their time
F
But we didn't mind
D#
We talked and we laughed
A#
We sat real close
Gm F
By the time they let us go
[Solo]
D# A# Gm F
I was already gone
D# A# Gm F
[Chorus]
D#
But there was somethin' bout the way
A#
The blue lights were shinin'
Gm F
Bringing out the freedom in your eyes
