Intro
[Bb] [C] [Bb] [C]
[Verse 1]
We were [Bb]just a couple years short of the age
By my [C]name on a fake ID
And still [Bb]βbout a hundred away from the day
Your daddy [C]said you could run with me
We were a [Bb]couple of line steppers
Who just couldnβt [C]wait to step over the line
Never thin[Bb]kinβ we wouldnβt last
I was your [C]first and you were mine
[Chorus]
And we [Bb]were leather jackets hanginβ onto a Harley
Two [C]heartbeats in the [F]moonlight
We we[Bb]re both feet hanginβ out over the edge
Of the [C]water tower sky[F]line
At [Dm]least thereβs a little bit of [C]sweet in the bitter
Though a [Bb]part of me is always gonna [F]miss her
I [Gm]am who I am, I just [C]miss who I was when we [Bb]were [C]
Mm-hmm [Bb] [C]
[Verse 2]
We were [Bb]gonna make it, werenβt we, baby?
Had it [C]all laid out in our mind
By the ti[Bb]me we knew time was runninβ out
Weβd [C]done run out of time
And we were [Bb]downtown Saturday night, last-[C]call cover band
βTil the [Bb]last song played, never thought weβd fade
Like the [C]stamp on the back of her hand
[Chorus]
We were [Bb]her on my shoulders, lighter in the air
βPour [C]Some Sugar [F]On Meβ
We were a [Bb]top down at Johnsonβs field
When she [C]whispered that she [F]wants me
At [Dm]least thereβs a little bit of [C]sweet in the bitter
Though a [Bb]part of me is always gonna [F]miss her
I [Gm]am who I am, I just [C]miss who I was when we [Bb]were
Oh, mm-[Am]hmm [Bb] [Am]
[Chorus]
We were [Bb]leather jackets hanginβ onto a Harley
Two [C]heartbeats in the [F]moonlight
We were both [Bb]feet hanginβ out over the edge
Of the [C]water tower sky[F]line
At [Dm]least thereβs a little bit of [C]sweet in the bitter
Though a [Bb]part of me is always gonna [F]miss her
I [Gm]am who I am, I just [C]miss who I was when we [Bb]were [C]
Mmm, yes, I do [Bb] [C]
[Outro]
My friends say
[Bb]βOh well, let that ship sail
You [C]gotta let go of herβ
Just was[Bb]nβt meant to be
But somewhere down dee[C]p, I still believe
That we we[Bb]re
