CAPO: 4th FRET INTRO: G Em Bm C G Em Bm C VERSE: G The shades on my dashboard, Em Shoes on my floorboard Bm7 C Lived in that old Chevrolet G We were two Roman candles, Em7 Too hot to handle Bm7 C Too hearts that couldn't be tamed G Yeah, we knew, Em Bm What was comin' and left it all C Like it was nothin' G Em Bm Over time, kept on runnin' and runnin' away CHORUS; (C) Yeah, what can I say G Em7 We had our hopes up and the windows down Bm C Fallin' fast in a one-lane town G Em7 Tangled up with your lips on mine Bm C Never seen a brighter green in those eyes and G Em I put my jacket on your shoulder (shoulder) Bm C Wishin' the weather wasn't gettin' colder G Em7 Lettin' you go, holdin' onto each other Bm C G Closin' our eyes, sayin', "Slow down Summer" Em7 Bm C (Slow down summer, summer, summer) VERSE: G Em I was beggin' those leaves, don't go changin' on me Bm C Friday night lights, stay away G Em7 But the 4th of July was just smoke in the sky Bm C And our sunburns were startin' to fade G Em7 Bm Yeah, we knew, what was comin' and left it all C Like it was nothin' G Em Bm Overtime, kept on runnin' and runnin' away CHORUS; (C) Yeah, those were the days G Em7 We had our hopes up and the windows down Bm C Fallin' fast in a one-lane town G Em Tangled up with your lips on mine Bm C Never seen a brighter green in those eyes and G Em I put my jacket on your shoulder Bm C Wishin' the weather wasn't gettin' colder G Em Lettin' you go, holdin' onto each other Bm C G Closin' our eyes, sayin', "Slow down Summer" Em7 Bm C (Slow down summer, summer, summer) BREAK:: G Em7 Why couldn't you slow down Summer? Bm C Just wait a minute, we weren't finished G Em7 Can we just hold onto each other?
