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

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