A E
Remember when we first met?
F#m
You said light my cigarette
D
So I lied to my mom and dad
E A
And jumped the fence and I ran
E
But we couldn't go very far
F#m
Cause you locked your keys in your car
D
So you sat and stared at my lips
E A
And I could already feel your kiss
A
Long nights, daydreams
E F#m
Sugar and smoke rings, I've been a fool
D E A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you
A
Headlights, on me
E F#m
Racing to 60, I've been a fool

Blue eyes, black jeans
E F#m
Lighters and candy, I've been a fool
D E A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you

Remember when you taught me fate
F#m
Said it all be worth the wait
D
Like that night in the back of the cab
E A
When your fingers walked in my hand
E
Next day, nothing on my phone
F#m
But I can still smell you on my clothes
D
Always hoping things would change
E A
But we went right back to your games
A
Long nights, daydreams
E F#m
Sugar and smoke rings, I've been a fool
D E A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you

Headlights, on me

And even if I run away

And give my heart a holiday
