Intro: G Am
G
I was twenty and she was eighteen
Am
We were just about as wild as we were green
G Am
In the ways of the world
G
She picked me up in that red ragtop
Am
We were free of the folks, hiding from the cops
G Am
On a summer night, runnin' all the red lights
G
And we parked way out at a clearing in a grove
Am
And the night was as hot as a coal burning stove
G Am
We were cookin' with gas, ooh it had to last
C G Am
In the back of that red ra---gtop
C G Am
She said please don't stop
G Am
Lovin' me
G
Well the very first time her mother met me
Am
Her green eyed girl had been a mother to be
G Am
For two weeks
G
I was out of a job and she was in school
Am
But life was fast and the world was cruel
G Am
We were young and wild, we decided not to have a child
G
So we did what we did and we tried to forget
Am
And we swore up and down there would be no regrets
G Am
In the morning light, but on the way home that night
C G Am
On the back of that red ra---gtop
C G Am
She said please don't stop
G Am
Lovin' me
C G Am G
We took one more trip around the sun
C G Am
But it was all make believe in the end
C G Am Em
No I can't say where she is today
Am7 Bm C Am
I can't remember who I was back then
G Am
G
Well you do what you do and you pay for your sins
Am
And there's no such thing as what might have been
G Am
That's a waste of time, drive you outta your mind
G
I was stopped at a red light just yesterday
Am G
Beside a young girl in a Cabriolet and her eyes were green
Am
And I was in an old scene
C G Am
I was back in that red ra---gtop
C G Am
On the day she stopped
G Am
Lovin' me
C G Am
I was back in that red ra---gtop
C G Am
On the day she stopped
G Am
Lovin' me
