Chords
[Intro]
[D] [Em] [G] [A] x2
[Verse 1]
I was [D]riding shotgun with my [Em]hair undone in the [G]front seat of his [A]car
He’s got a [D]one-hand feel on the [Em]steering wheel
The [G]other on my [A]heart
[D]I look around, turn the [Em]radio down
He says [G]baby is something [A]wrong?
I say [D]nothing I was just [Em]thinking how we [G]don’t have a [A]song
And he says...
[Chorus]
[D]Our song is the [Em]slamming screen door,
[G]Sneakin’ out late, tapping [A]on your window
[D]When we’re on the [Em]phone and you talk real [G]slow
Cause it’s [A]late and your mama don’t [D]know
Our song is the [Em]way you laugh
The [G]first date “man, I didn’t [A]kiss her, but I should have”
[Em]And when I got [A]home ... before I said a[Em]men
Asking [D]God if he could play it a[G]gain
[Interlude]
[D] [Em] [G] [A]
[Verse 2]
[D]I was walking up the [Em]front porch steps after [G]everything that [A]day
Had gone [D]all wrong or been [Em]trampled on
And [G]lost and thrown a[A]way
[D]Got to the hallway, [Em]well on my way to my [G]lovin’ [A]bed
I [D]almost didn’t notice [Em]all the roses
And the [G]note that [A]said...
[Chorus]
[D]Our song is the [Em]slamming screen door,
[G]Sneakin’ out late, tapping [A]on your window
[D]When we’re on the [Em]phone and you talk real [G]slow
Cause it’s [A]late and your mama don’t [D]know
Our song is the [Em]way you laugh
The [G]first date “man, I didn’t [A]kiss her, but I should have”
[Em]And when I got [A]home ... before I said a[Em]men
Asking [D]God if he could play it a[G]gain
[Interlude]
[D] [Em] [G] [A]
[D]Da da da da [Em]da da da da
[G]Da da da da [A]da da da da
[Bridge]
[Em]I’ve heard every album, listened to the [G]radio
[D]Waited for [A]something to [Em]come along
That was as [G]good as our song
[Chorus]
[D]Cause our song is the [Em]slamming screen door
[G]Sneaking out late, tapping [A]on his [D]window
When we’re on the [Em]phone and he talks real [G]slow
Cause it’s [A]late and his mama don’t [D]know
Our song is the [Em]way he laughs
The [G]first date “man, I didn’t [A]kiss him, and I could have”
[Em]And when I got [A]home ... before I said a[Em]men
Asking [D]God if he could play it a[G]gain...
[D] [Em] [G] [A]
[D]Play it a[Em]gain... [G]Ho yea ho [A]yea
[Outro]
I was [D]riding shotgun with my [Em]hair undone
In the [G]front seat of his [A]car
I [D]grabbed a pen and an [Em]old napkin
And [G]I... wrote down our song
