3Rd Gear And 17 Cifras

[Intro]
Cadd9  D x2
 
[Verse 1]
           Cadd9
I held the keys to that old Chevrolet
        D                    G
And you held the keys to my heart
            Cadd9
I'd throw a fit, hit the dash, get out and kick the tire
          D                           G
When that old piece of junk wouldn't start
            Cadd9
It'd be smokin good, I'd slam down the hood
        D                         G
Just to see you there laughin at me
             Cadd9
On the other side of a dirty windshield
          D                    G
Lookin as pretty as you could be
 
[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D              G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D
I lost you around 3rd gear and 17
 
Cadd9  D
 
[Verse 2]
       Cadd9
In the blink of an eye high school flew by
             D               G
You went your way and I went mine
            Cadd9
But we swore we'd make it our love could take it
    D                          G
400 miles could stand the test of time
    Cadd9
I left that fall to play college ball
         D                          G
But my dreams would all come to an end
                 Cadd9
Cuz you know the big leagues never called
                 D                 G
And you went and fell in love with him
 
[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D              G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D
I lost you around 3rd gear and 17
 
Cadd9  D
 
[Solo]
Am Em C G
Am Em
 
[Bridge]
D                                   Am
Memories flash through my mind like old faded photographs
        Cadd9
I still think about you in that red Malibu
       D                  G
And I just can't help but laugh
 
[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D            G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D       C
I lost you around 3rd gear and 17
