We used to be so happy we used to be so true 
E 
We used to think there wasn't anything we couldn't do 
E 
But they could see right through us we didn't seem to care 
E 
We were on a highway that ain't going anywhere 
     A                                E 
They told us we were wrong a thousand times 
   E                               D       A      E 
We rode out to the country and got tangled in the pines 
  
We tried to take it slowly we tried to understand 
That we'd be on a one way trip if things got out of hand 
We lost our direction you could say we lost our touch 
Now all of those petty things don't seem to matter much 
I can take your blame if you take mine 
We rode out to the country and got tangled in the pines 
 
Fiddle 
 
Now we're lost forever along the roadway side 
But I can't say I'm sorry that we took that foolish ride 
We couldn't get along at all no we just disagreed 
You drove me to the point where I just drove into the trees 
I guess we should have seen the warning signs 
When we drove out to the country and got tangled in the pines 
  
They told us we were wrong a thousand times 
We rode out to the country and got tangled in the pines
