A D E A D E
[Verse 1]
A D E
Sunshine on a two lane road
A D E
Tom Petty on the radio
A
Fence post flying past
D E
Field after field of fresh cut grass
A D E
Out there where the wild things grow
Bm A
Wish I could bottle it up
D
Cause that’ll always feel like us
[Pre-Chorus]
A
We were never strong
D E
As the whiskey we were drinkin’
A Am
Wrapped up in that sun sinkin’
D E
Heart beat in July heavy
A
We were good as gone
D E
Like the leaves fall in September
A
But we threw around forever
D E
In the back of that old Chevy
[Chorus]
A F#m
Two carved names in a live oak tree
D E
Is all that’s left of you and me
A F#m
Gone like the summer in a Goodyear swing
Bm E A D E
We were never evergreen
[Verse 2]
A D E
Lipstick on a dixie cup
A D E
Never could get close enough
A
Do you ever think about us
D E
Think about pickin’ back up
A
Get to missin’ what we had
D E
Does it make your rearview sad
[Pre-Chorus]
A
We were never strong
D E
As the whiskey we were drinkin’
A Am
Wrapped up in that sun sinkin’
D E
Heart beat in July heavy
A
We were good as gone
D E
Like the leaves fall in September
A
But we threw around forever
D E
In the back of that old Chevy

Gone like the summer in a Goodyear swing
