C 
The neighbor
G 
kid plugs his guitar in

Sounds like he's learned

a new chord

Banging along with his drummer friend
F 
Man, can that kid count to four
G 
C 
The sink's been all stocked
G 
up since Tuesday
F 
Dishes pile up like the mail
G 
C 
And the dog's fast asleep
G 
in the driveway
F 
G 
Too lazy to chase his own tail

It's a beautiful evening

Am 
And we're going nowhere

of the fair
G 
Old Joe has been sayin' all summer
F 
G 
We can borrow his Delta 88
C 
G 
If we ever get the notion to take a wander
F 
G 
Or go out on an old -fashioned date
Am 
Your hair comes alive in
G 
the wind as we drive
F 
G 
The vinyl seat's sticky and torn
Am 
And there's nothing like the
G 
feel of eight cylinders
F 
G 
When you put your foot down to the floor
F 
The crickets in the trees
C 
singing love songs
E 
Am 
The leaves rustling the night air
F

in your halter top

As we make our way out to the

fair
The old man at the gate
G 
He's looking at the rain
F 
G 
So we pause before going inside
C 
This old fucker's been grumpest
G 
since 1908
F 
G 
We get back in the car and keep right
Am 
To a thicket up the ruffle
G 
past the swimming hole
F 
I seem to remember somewhere
G 
Am 
G 
A break in the gate twenty years ago,
F 
G 
I'm as tonished to find it still there.
F 
Just a strand of barbed wire,
C 
I hold a little higher,
E 
You duck through without getting scared.
Am 
F 
C 
An  d  we're laughing
G 
like two logs in a fire
F 
Cause we just snuck our way
G 
Am 
G 
into the fray
Am 
G 
C 
Neath colored lightbulbs, give me your hand
F

Hold lost in the crowd
C 
F 
while hucksters call out
Dm 
Am 
G 
The farm kids and horses
C 
Dm 
C 
and Mexican voices
F 
Dm 
A rickety ride called
G 
the Diver Down
Dm 
G 
Snatches us fifty feet off of the ground
F 
And we're falling together
We're falling together
G 
Em 
G 
Spinning round and round
C 
We find ourselves parked
G 
in a cornfield
F 
G 
While a summer storm gathers in the sky
C 
Did we leave the windows open
G 
over the sofa, dear?
F 
G 
Well that's a small price to pay to be alive
Am 
The Delta 88
G 
feels like velvet when it's late
F 
G 
A comfortable place, old Joe knew it
Am 
G 
Seems   almost like we're 16 again
F 
G 
Except now we both really know how to do it
F 
C 
And if I'm lucky I'll be beside you
E 
When you're crowned
Am 
in your wreath of red
F 
C 
G 
And I, I will always remind you
F 
Of the night we snuck into the
