[G]
[D] [Am] [Em]
[C] [G]
[D] [C]
We're looking [G] back when I [D] met you, we were [Am] shining, [Bm] we [C] were brand new, [G] a couple of kids
[D] who'd never been [C] found.
There was a quarter [G] there, a paper [D] sack, leave [A] a penny [G] on [C] the railroad track, [G] you let me
steal [D] a kiss from you [C] when no one was around.
Hanging [G] out, hanging [D] on, to [Am] the night before [G] it [C] was gone, like [G] we'd never see [D] that parking lot [C] again.
We were [G] sneaking in the picture [D] show, pouring [Am] bourbon [G] in [C] our coat, [G] oh, and never seeing
[D] how the [C] movie ends, and [Am] I thought that they might write off in [D] the [C] sun,
[Bm] but [D] you wrecked
[G] it all, you wrecked my [D] heart, you wrecked [Am] our house and you [G] wrecked [C] my car, [G] left all
the pieces [D] scattered on [C] the lawn.
[G] Caught up in your [D] headlights, well, I [Am] was blindsided [C] in plain sight, [G] I'll salvage what
[D] I made when [C] you're gone, but you wrecked [G] it all.
[D] [Am]
[C] Well, on [G] down the road, we built [D] our home out [Am] of bed [G] sheets, [C]
[G] styrofoam, hoping that
[D] the wind might never [C] blow, and it's love [G] and fight, well, every [D] day, [A] like a Tennessee [C] Williams
play, [G] not knowing how [D] it ended, well, [C] we signed on for the show, and [Am] I hoped that we
might write off in [D] the [C] sun, [G] but [D] you wrecked [G] it all, you wrecked [D] my heart, you wrecked
[A] our house and you [C] wrecked my car, [G] left all the pieces [D] scattered [C] on the lawn.
Caught [G] up in your [D] headlights, well, I [Am] was [G] blindsided [C] in plain [G] sight, I'll salvage what
[D] I made when [C] you're gone, but you wrecked [G] it all, [D]
[Am] [C] you wrecked [G] it all.
[D]
[C] Life [G] ain't what it was [D] back then, [A] someone smashed the [Em] [C] windshield in, [G] well, you never
[C] see [D] it coming till [C] it's knocking out your teeth, and it's [G] the same [D] Saturday, brand [Am] new
[G] [C] Ford Chevrolet's,
[G] lined up like [D] they never saw [C] the likes of you and me, and [Am] I watched
them as they drove off in [D] the [C] sun, [G] but [D] you [G] wrecked it all, you wrecked [D] my heart, you
wrecked [Am] our house and [G] you wrecked [C] my car, [G] left all the pieces [D] scattered [C] on the lawn.
Caught [G] up in your [D] headlights, well, I [Am] was [C] blindsided in plain [G] sight, I'll salvage what
[D] I made when [C] you're gone, but you [G] wrecked it all, [D] you [Am] [C] wrecked [G] it all.
