Standard tuning
verse 1
Yeah these late nights, aren't what they used to be.
Traded fireflies, for every headlight that I see.
The country roads that raised me, I see them now but as a memory,
Everything is good, everything is fine, it's somebody's home but it'll never be mine.
You and me ridin round in a Chevy, two green lights and we're out of the city,
It's all I've ever known, when I don't know where to go.
Got no jobs and we got no money, got no cares when we hit the ground runnin,
Nothin but a summer sky, just livin that simple life.
verse 2
All this sunshine, I'm just wishin it would rain,
A thousand faces, but not one of them knows my name.
Cuz I, say goodbye to what feels right, football games on a Friday night,
Everything is good, everything is fine, it's somebody's home but it'll never be mine.
You and me ridin round in a Chevy, two green lights and we're out of the city,
It's all I've ever known, when I don't know where to go.
Got no jobs and we got no money, got no cares when we hit the ground runnin,
Nothin but a summer sky, just livin that simple life.
Bridge
Just like the seasons change, I know things will never be the same,
I'd give it all just to feel that way again.
But it was you and me ridin round in a Chevy, two green lights and we're out of the city,
It's all I've ever known, when I don't know where to go.
Chorus
Got no jobs and we got no money, got no cares when we hit the ground runnin,
Nothin but a summer sky, just livin that simple life.
You and me ridin round in a Chevy, two green lights and we're out of the city,
It's all I've ever known, when I don't know where to go.
Got no jobs and we got no money, got no cares when we hit the ground runnin,
Nothin but a summer sky, just livin that simple life.
I'd leave this all behind, to just live that simple life.
