[Verse]
G E B (p) C (p)
We stood in your room and laughed out loud
SOL MI LA DO
Suddenly the laughter died, we were caught in an eye to eye
G E B (p) C (p)
We sat on the floor and did we sit close
SOL MI
I could smell your thoughts and thought,
LA DO
"Do you want to touch a lot like me?"
SOL DO SOL
Too scared to say a thing
[Pre-chorus]
B (p) C (p)
Left your house and kicked myself
E (p) D (p) C
Put those feelings on a shelf to die
B (p) C (p)
Guess I'm not the gambling type
E (p) D (p) C
Think of what the two of us had lost Had lost
[Verse]
I needed some time to think it out
7-Eleven parking lot, a toothless woman turned and stopped
Gave her a dime and a Chesterfield
She leaned down and kissed my cheek
I was scared but it felt sweet Felt so sweet
[Pre-chorus]
She asked me if I had a name
Told her I was glued up on some chick
We sat and smoked against the wall
Drank a beer, felt the chill of fall Of fall
Chorus
SOL FA#/SOL MI RE DO
I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house
SI LA
I drove so fast
SOL FA#/SOL MI RE DO
The wind it couldn't cool me down so I turned it around
SI LA
And came back up
SOL FA#/SOL MI RE
You were waiting on your step, steam chilling off your
DO SI LA
breath and water in your eyes
SOL FA#/SOL MI RE
We pulled each other into one, parkas clinging on the
DO SI RE
lawn, and kissed right there

[Pre-chorus]
Said my chicks all smoke these things
Handed you a Chesterfield King
Held your hand and watched TV
Traced the little lines along your palm Your palm
[Repeat chorus]
