G  Em  Bm  C
 
VERSE:
     G
The shades on my dashboard,
 Em
Shoes on my floorboard
 Bm7                     C
Lived in that old Chevrolet
 
         G
We were two Roman candles,
Em7
Too hot to handle
Bm7                          C
Too hearts that couldn't be tamed
 
          G
Yeah, we knew,
          Em                   Bm
What was comin' and laughed it off 
             C
Like it was nothin'

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



 
      G             Em                  Bm
Over time, kept on runnin' and runnin' away
 
 
CHORUS;
      (C)
Yeah, what can I say
            G                Em7
We had our hopes up and the windows down
Bm                 C
Fallin' fast in a one-lane town
 
G                    Em7
Tangled up with your lips on mine
Bm                     C
Never seen a brighter green in those eyes and
 
G                        Em
I put my jacket on your shoulder (shoulder)
 Bm                         C
Wishin' the weather wasn't gettin' colder
 
 G                      Em7
Lettin' you go, holdin' onto each other
 Bm                         C         G
Closin' our eyes, sayin', "Slow down Summer"
 
  Em7         Bm               C
(Slow down summer, summer, summer)
 
 
VERSE:
       G                              Em
I was beggin' those leaves, don't go changin' on me
 Bm                         C
Friday night lights, stay away
 
         G                    Em7
But the 4th of July was just smoke in the sky
         Bm                        C
And our sunburns were startin' to fade
 
          G              Em7               Bm
Yeah, we knew, what was comin' and left it all
             C
Like it was nothin'
 
     G             Em                  Bm
Overtime, kept on runnin' and runnin' away
 
 
CHORUS;
      (C)
Yeah, those were the days
           G                 Em7
We had our hopes up and the windows down
Bm                 C
Fallin' fast in a one-lane town
 
G                     Em
Tangled up with your lips on mine
Bm                     C

Wishin' the weather wasn't gettin' colder
 
 G                      Em
Lettin' you go, holdin' onto each other
 Bm                         C            G
Closin' our eyes, sayin', "Slow down Summer"
