Highlighted Show chord diagrams
This is my first tab so give me a little grace. :) I haven't included any of the hammer-ons or pull-offs, if you're listening to the song though they're easy to pick up on. Thanks! -Jim G D I was only seventeen living out a reckless dream, C G Riding those summer streets to the corner of High and 13 G D Me and other city boys running too wild and too bored C G Looking for a grown man's toys out at that corner store C G C G D Well they threw the money to me and somebody's I.D. G C I was in the parking lot scared as hell Em G Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well G C Two bottles of wine, those red and blue lights Em G Took a trip down town for the very first time C G C G D Watching my own life flash before my eyes C G Like I was seventeen [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/mat-kearney/339761.html ] G D She was from across the tracks with the private school laugh C G We were both falling too fast down a river that wouldn't last C G C G D It was only one night and our first time G C I was in the parking lot scared as hell Em G Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well G C I held her tight between those yellow lines Em G Sat there crying about a miscarried life C G C G D Watching my own life flash before my eyes C Like I was seventeen G Oh it was a lifetime ago C G I pray for mercy walking on down that road D D I met the woman of my dreams, she said yes to me C G C G C G And she said, "Baby I'm late, never this late. I'm feeling a change. We D Should find out either way." C G C G And I'm grabbing my keys and I'm shutting the front door C G D I can hardly breathe driving that familiar road C G And I'm parked between those yellow lines C G Looking down that aisle C G D Don't know whether to laugh or whether to cry G C I'm in the parking lot scared as hell Em G Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well G C Two pink lines or maybe just one Em G Could be my daughter or it could be my son C G C G D Watching our own lives flash before my eyes C G Like I was seventeen C G C G Funny how the years switch around the tears that way C G Like I was seventeen  |
