[Intro]
[Asus2] [Dsus2]
[Verse 1]
You were [Asus2]burning in a 94 Corolla
3 hours deep into South Dakota
I was [Dsus2]workin' on a luke warm Coca-Cola
In the dog days of July
And my [Asus2]dad was a Superman stick shift driver
Stay at home Lois Lane beside him
[Dsus2]Kissing to the rhythm of the billboard signs
As they went blurring by
[F#m]Even when he would stop to pull over,
[E]He never took his hand off of her shoulder
[Chorus]
[Dsus2] You can see f[Asus2]or miles, you can reach the [F#m]dials
Sit back and s[E]mile from the front seat
[Dsus2] You can chase t[Asus2]he sun, you can feel the [F#m]hum
Of the axles u[E]nderneath your feet
[Dsus2] When you're sittin' [Asus2]shotgun
[F#m] You're sittin' pretty a[E]nd free
[Dsus2] But you learn t[E]o love from the backseat
[Asus2]
[Verse 2]
So [Asus2]blink one day and I'm rolling along
With a part time job and blue pom-poms
Like [Dsus2]everyday's a knock off mellowcamp song
With his hand right on my knee
And [Asus2]we made the age old prom-night promise
Put the corsage right where I want it
And [Dsus2]we found a road with nobody on it
And we didn't stop to think
And [F#m]I didn't care when he killed the motor
[E]Shut off the lights and we climbed over
[Chorus]
[Dsus2] You can see f[Asus2]or miles, you can reach the [F#m]dials
Sit back and s[E]mile from the front seat
[Dsus2] You can chase t[Asus2]he sun, you can feel the [F#m]hum
Of the axles u[E]nderneath your feet
[Dsus2] When you're sittin' [Asus2]shotgun
[F#m] You're sittin' pretty a[E]nd free
[Dsus2] But you learn t[E]o love from the backseat
[Dsus2] [Asus2] [F#m] [E]
[Dsus2] [Asus2] [F#m] [E]
[Bridge]
[Dsus2]Up here, I see it clear through the rear-view
[E]It's good to take the backseat when you get to
[Chorus]
[Dsus2] You can see f[Asus2]or miles, you can reach the [F#m]dials
Sit back and s[E]mile from the front seat
[Dsus2] You can chase t[Asus2]he sun, you can feel the [F#m]hum
Of the axles u[E]nderneath your feet
[Dsus2] When you're sittin' [Asus2]shotgun
[F#m] You're sittin' pretty a[E]nd free
[Dsus2] But you learn t[E]o love...
[Dsus2] You can see f[Asus2]or miles, you can reach the [F#m]dials
Sit back and s[E]mile from the front seat
[Dsus2] You can chase t[Asus2]he sun, you can feel the [F#m]hum
Of the axles u[E]nderneath your feet
[Dsus2] When you're sittin' [Asus2]shotgun
[F#m] You're sittin' pretty a[E]nd free
[Dsus2] But you learn t[E]o love from the backseat
[Dsus2]
