Standard (EADGBE)
The night was dark, your lights were bright
You pulled me over, I wasn't feeling so right
Stepped out to the car, rolled my window down
Handed you my license, registration with a frown
But I could tell by the look in your eyes
That you'd be going for a ride in the passenger side
And you wouldn't be issuing any citations
But you tore me out the car
Pulled my arms back too far
Made me walk the line and shined that flashlight in my eyes
Made me say the alphabet backwards with your cuffs in arm
Searched my pockets and took all my bud
You know the night is dark and lonely
Without you by my side
I hear your sirens, run and hide
I didn't mean to write that ransom note
It was just a joke, so I could see you again
And how many times must I rob a liquor store, to see you more
To just be friends
But when you pull up to that crime scene
I knew it wouldn't nice but oh so mean
When you pull out your cuffs and give me all your affection
But you tore me out the car
Pulled my arms back too far
Made me walk the line and shined that flashlight in my eyes
Made me say the alphabet backwards with your cuffs in arm
Searched my pockets and took all my bud
You know the night is dark and lonely
Without you by my side
I hear your sirens, I hear your sirens
I hear your sirens, run and hide
