Capo 5th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
now the parking lot is empty everyones gone someplace
I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed a cooler & a 2-day suitcase
cause theres a place we like to goto, way out in the country
5 miles out of the city limit we're singin & your hands upon my knee
Chorus
so we're ok, we're fine, baby i'm here to stop the crying
chase all the ghosts from your head
stronger than the monster beneathe your bed
smarter than the tricks played on your heart
we'll look at them together then we'll take em apart
adding up the total of a love thats true
multiply life by the power of two.
you know the things that i am afraid of, I'm not afraid to tell
& if we ever leave a legacy its that we loved each other well
Ive seen the shadows of so many people trying on the treasures of youth
a road that fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash & i'm glad we got off
to tell you the truth
Chorus
all the tiny little trinkets of temptation
something new instead of something old
all you gotta do is scratch beneathe the surface and its foo-oools gold
foo-oools gold
now we're talking bout a difficult thing and your eyes are getting wet
but i took us for better and i took us for worse dont you ever forget
the stell bars between me and a promise suddenly bend with ease
the closer i'm bound in love to you the closer i am to free
