E
Cue the music out the driveway

Slow summer on a Friday

Here we go again, wild in the wind
B                              E
Mama knows she's gonna be late

Hit the party just to watch her dance
           A
Good to go when she grabs your hand
     E                  A               E
Like a shot from a gun, it's a dead run
                   A
The first leg of a getaway plan

You burn rubber when you smoke them tires
                                   E
Day's gone and the night's on fire
A                              E
She's telling you turn off the highway
    C#m                  B
The sunset melts all the blue away
A                         E
Blackbird watching on the telephone wire
C#m                         B
Whiskey on her lips and the night's on fire
A                         E
Littered with stars close enough to touch
C#m                 B
July promise in the back of that truck
A                  E
Her every move was taking you higher
C#m                             B
You try to play it cool but the night's on fire

( A E B E B )

        E
She's a seat laid back, a boy's dream
                      A
Drawin' hearts in the window steam
        E                  A                   E
She's a gettin' you right, knows what you like
                     A
And pours it on like gasoline

When you know what you're headed to
                               E
What's a red blooded boy to do
A                              E
She's telling you turn off the highway
    C#m                  B
The sunset melts all the blue away
A                         E
Blackbird watching on the telephone wire

Littered with stars close enough to touch
