[INTRO: ]D D G G D D G G D A D D (with lead one)
D
I was doing all right, I was minding my business
G
Thinking to myself what a great life this is
D A
Cruising through the country, rockin' to the radio
D
I was through with love, all the fussing and fighting
G
It didn't seem worth the thunder and lightning
D A D
Made up my mind, I was living my life alone
(D) D G A (with lead two)
D
Just when my head was getting clearer
G
I took a little glance in the rearview mirror
D A
Did a double take 'cause I couldn't believe my eyes
D
She was right on my bumper in a drop top Mustang
G
Long hair flying, pulling in the fast lane
D A D
Stepped on the pedal 'cause I couldn't let her pass me by
G D
CHORUS: Well you never can say never
G A
When it comes right down to love
G D
Even if you say forever
D A D
You won't ever, ever get enough
(D) D G G D A D D (with lead three)
D
I can't count the times I've been heart busted
G
Threw up my hands thoroughly disgusted
D A
Swearing I was never gonna take that fall again
D
But no sooner said then she turned the corner
G
Suddendly I'm a born again goner
D A D
Telling myself this one will never end
CHORUS
G D A D
Oh You won't ever, ever get enough
(D) D G G D A D D (with lead four)
