Intro and verse F# is on the 9..... Pre-Chorus/Chorus... on 2
Intro: C# F# x2
C# F#
Mamma, she's still got that picture
C# F#
Of me and Katie on homecomin' night
C# F#
She looked pretty in that fancy dress
C# F#
But that girl was a barefoot blue jean princess
(Pre-Chorus)
A#m G#
A hand full of rocks and daddy's pine ladder
F#
Sure did come in handy
A#m G#
For a teenage boy thinkin' all that mattered
F#
Was a kiss that taste like candy
(Chorus)
C#
Back in the day we were wild and free
G#
She was my dashboard drummer
G# F#
Butterflies in the backseat
A#m G#
Little footprints on my window
C#
Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
G# F#
And four letters in a heart carved in a pine
A#m G# F#
A little sun dress layin up there on the bank
A#m G# F# (Let Ring)
While the water washed our innocence away
C#
Back in the day
(Verse 2)
C#
Friday nights I'd look up there in the bleachers
C#
And I can see her,
C#
with my letter man's jacket on
C#
And I still got this scar here on my right hand
C#
From when Bobby told her she deserved a better man
(Pre-Chorus)
A#m G#
Aw.. She hung right with me down in panama city
F#
Raisin' hell on our senior trip
A#m
and man ain't it funny
G#
it gets the best of me
F#
And I just can't forget
I just can't forget
(Chorus)
C#
Back in the day we were wild and free
G#
She was my dashboard drummer
F#
Butterflies in the backseat
A#m G#
Little footprints on my window
C#
Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
G# F#
And four letters in a heart carved in a pine
A#m G# F#
A little sun dress layin up there on the bank
A#m G# F#(Let Ring)
While the water washed our innocence away
Back in the day (Low F# Build-up)
(BRIDGE)
G#
Summer was over
F#
College was callin' man I had to watch her leave
G# A#m F#
But I still wonder if she ever thinks of me
(CHORUS)
C#
'Cause back in the day we were wild and free
G#
She was my dashboard drummer
F#
Butterflies in the backseat
A#m G#
Little footprints on my window
C#
Parkin' my Chevy by the riverside
G# F#
And four letters in a heart carved in a pine
A#m G# F#
A little sun dress layin up there on the bank
A#m G# F#
While the water washed our innocence away
B
Feels like yesterday
C#
Back in the day
C# End C#
Back in the day
