[Verse]

Fmaj7
They put the pen to paper
Fmaj7
With a little whiskey and wine
Fmaj7
She loved his sense of humor
                          Am7
He loved the way that she smiled
A7
Knew she was gone tomorrow
                          G
She knew that he couldn't stay
G
But they were here today
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                    Fmaj7
Yeah, but they both knew
Fmaj7
Forever wasn't in the cards 

that they drew
                  
They danced around 
                Am7
a wasted I-love-you 
                   
They had a feeling 
                    G
it would never come true

They did it for the feelings 

that they didn't wanna fight
                        Am7
Went down in a blaze of glory
Am7
They wouldn't trade the flames
                     G
They made a bunch of memories and 

they made up both the names
                         Fmaj7
They just did it for the story
Fmaj7
Did it for the only reason on their minds

And now it's on their minds 
          G
all the time
 
 
[Verse]

                       Fmaj7
And when they left the bar, 

didn't make it very far, yeah
Fmaj7
They wound up 'round the 

corner somewhere underneath the stars
                       Am7
No, it didn't take em' long
Am7
For they were good and gone
                         G
Yeah, they made a little love to 

a couple country songs
