Intro and verse F# is on the 9..... Pre-Chorus/Chorus... on 2
Intro: C# F# x2
[C#]Mamma, she's still got that p[F#]icture
Of me and Ka[C#]tie on homecomin' ni[F#]ght
She looked pr[C#]etty in that f[F#]ancy dress
[C#] But that girl was a barefoot blue[F#] jean princess
(Pre-Chorus)
[A#]A hand full of r[G#]ocks and daddy's pine ladder
[F#]Sure did come in handy
[A#]For a teenage boy th[G#]inkin' all that mattered
Was a [F#]kiss that taste like candy
(Chorus)
[C#]Back in the day we were wild and free
[G#]She was my dashboard drummer
[G#]Butterflies in the backseat[F#]
[A#]Little footprints o[G#]n my window
[C#]Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
And f[G#]our letters in a heart carved in a [F#]pine
[A#]A little sun dress l[G#]ayin up there on the b[F#]ank
A# G# F# (Let Ring)
While the water washed our innocence away
Back in the day [C#]
(Verse 2)
[C#]Friday nights I'd look up there in the bleachers
[C#]And I can see her,
[C#]with my letter man's jacket on
[C#]And I still got this scar here on my right hand
[C#]From when Bobby told her she deserved a better man
(Pre-Chorus)
Aw.. S[A#]he hung right with me d[G#]own in panama city
Raisin' [F#]hell on our senior trip
and m[A#]an ain't it funny
it ge[G#]ts the best of me
And [F#]I just can't forget
I just can't forget
(Chorus)
[C#]Back in the day we were wild and free
[G#]She was my dashboard drummer
Butterflies in the bac[F#]kseat
Little foot[A#]prints on my w[G#]indow
[C#]Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
And four le[G#]tters in a heart carved in a [F#]pine
A little s[A#]un dress layin u[G#]p there on the b[F#]ank
A# G# F#(Let Ring)
While the water washed our innocence away
Back in the day (Low F# Build-up)
(BRIDGE)
S[G#]ummer was over
College was callin' man I[F#] had to watch her leave
[G#]But I still wonder if she ever [A#]thinks of [F#]me
(CHORUS)
[C#]'Cause back in the day we were wild and free
[G#]She was my dashboard drummer
Butterflies in the bac[F#]kseat
Little fo[A#]otprints on my w[G#]indow
[C#]Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
And four le[G#]tters in a heart carved in a p[F#]ine
A little [A#]sun dress layin [G#]up there on the b[F#]ank
While the [A#]water washed our in[G#]nocence away[F#]
[B]Feels like yesterday
[C#]Back in the day
[C#]Back in the day[End][C#]
