Intro: G, D, Am, C
G
Bare feet in your passenger's seat
D
And it's hard to breathe when you look at me
Am C
But I could get used to this feeling
G
Grains of sand they fill your hands as we
D
Sit by the water it's still getting hotter
Am C
We've got two more months of perfect
G D
Pair of skinny jeans and a boy that plays guitar
Am
Well honey I got purpose somewhere
C
But I'm giving you my heart
[CHORUS]
G D
Because there's something about street lights
Am C
And wanting to believe in this town that sleeps all night
G D
But I'm not sure what we're chasing
Am
We'll drive and drive for hours
C
Just looking for a reason
G D Am C (or Em)
And your permanent marker promise could mean forever or 'till sundown
G
But I don't care right now...
D Am C
How could I care right now?
G
Faded shorts and your plaid shirt
D
And I feel alive for what it's worth
Am C
I gotta tell you
G
Pick-up trucks and these dirt roads
D Am C
Are all I've been allowed to know
G D
I can feel it building, and I don't know what it is
Am
But baby something deep inside me
C
Wants to always feel like this
CHORUS
Em/D
Aren't we the only ones around here
G
Who know there's something better out there
C
I can feel it,
C
And I wanna believe it
CHORUS
G
Bare feet in your passenger's seat
D
And it's hard to breathe when you look at me
Am C
But I could get used to this feeling
G
Grains of sand they fill your hands as we
D
Sit by the water it's still getting hotter
Am C
We've got two more months of perfect
