G (Am7/G)
Another life but I still remember
G (Am7/G)
A county fair in steamy September
Em Bm C G
In the Year of the Tiger 19-something
G (Am7/G)
I was broke and you were unbroken
G (Am7/G)
A little jokes to keep it unspoken
Em Bm C G
Even when I knew you were the last one
[Chorus]
Am
I broke a promise to myself
Em
To ride the throttle 'til wheels came off
C
Burn out like a Molotov
Em
In the night sky
Am
I broke a promise to myself
Em
Made a couple to a brown eyed girl
C
Who rode with me through the mean ol' world
G
Never say die

[Verse 2]
G
Time flies when you're making babies
G
Do you miss your little black Mercedes
Em Bm C G
Do you miss the girl you once had time to be
G
When you said we had the same three wishes
G
I hope you weren't being facetious
Em Bm C G
And I hope you still see fire inside of me
[Chorus]
Am
I broke a promise to myself
Em
To ride the throttle 'til wheels came off
C
Burn out like a Molotov
Em
In the night sky
Am
I broke a promise to myself
Em
Made a couple to a brown eyed girl
C
Who rode with me through the mean ol' world
G
Never say die
