[G] [Am]
[G] I was 20 and she was 18.
[Am] We were just about as wild as we were [G] green in the ways of the world.
[Am]
[G] She picked me up in that red rack [Am] top.
We were three of the folks hiding from the [G] cops on a
summer night, running [Am] all the red lights.
[G] We parked way out in a clearing in a [Am] grove and the night was
hot.
It's a coal burning [G] stove.
We were cooking with gas.
[Am] We knew it had to last.
[C] In the back of that [G] red [Am] rack top,
she [C] said, [G] please [Am] don't stop.
[G] Well, the very first time a mother met me,
[Am] her green-eyed girl had been a mother to [G] me for two weeks.
[Am] [G] I was out of a job and she was in [Am] school and life was fat and the world was cruel.
[G] We were young and
wild.
We decided [Am] not to have a child.
[G] So we did what we did and we tried to forget [Am] and we swore
up and down there would be no [G] regrets in the morning light.
But on [Am] the way home that night,
[C] on the back of that [G] red [Am] rack top, she [C] said, [G] please [Am] don't stop [C] [G] loving me.
[Am] We [C] took one [G] more trip [Am] around [Em] the sun, but [C] it was all [G] make-believe [Am] in the end.
[Em] No, [C] I can't [G] say where [Am] she is [Em] today.
I [Am] can't remember who I was [Bm] back then.
[Am]
[G]
[Am] [G] Well, you do what you do and you pay for your [Am] sins and there's no such thing as what [C] might have [G] been.
That's a waste of time.
[Am] Drive you out of your mind.
[G] I was stopped at a red light just yesterday
[Am] laid beside a young girl in a [G] cabriolet and her eyes were green.
I [Am] was in an old sleep.
I was [C] back
in that [G] red [Am] rack top [C] on the day [G]
[Am] she stopped [G] loving me.
