Intro
G D Am C G D C
Verse 1
G D
Well lookin' back when I met you,
Am C
We were shiny, we were brand new
G D C
A couple kids who'd never been to town
G D
It was a quart of beer, a paper sack,
Am C
Leave a penny on the railroad track
G D C
You let me steal a kiss from you when no one was around
Verse 2
G D
Hangin' out, hangin' on
Am C
To the night fore it was gone
G D C
Like we'd never see that parking lot again
G D
We were sneakin' in the picture show
Am C
And pourin' bourbon in our coke
G D C
Aw and never seein' how the movie ends
Am D
And I thought that they might ride off in the sun
Chorus
G D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
Am C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
G D C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
G D
Caught up in your headlights
Am C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
G D C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
G D Am C
But you wrecked it all
Verse 3
G D
Well on down the road we built our home
Am C
Out of bedsheets and Styrofoam
G D C
Hopin' that the wind might never blow
G D
And it's love or fight, everyday
Am C
Like a Tennessee Williams play
G D C
Not knowin' how it ended when we signed on for the show
Am D
And I hoped that we might ride off in the sun
Chorus
G D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
Am C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
G D C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
G D
Caught up in your headlights
Am C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
G D C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
G D Am
But you wrecked it all
G D C
You wrecked it all
Verse 4
G D
Life ain't what it was back then
Am C
Someone smashed the windshield in
G D C
Well you never see it comin' till it's knockin' out your teeth
G D
And it's the same Saturday,
Am C
Brand new Fords and Chevrolet's
G D C
Lined up like they never saw the likes of you and me
Am D
And I watched them as they drove off in the sun
Chorus
G D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
Am C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
G D C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
G D
Caught up in your headlights
Am C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
G D C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
G D
But you wrecked it all, la da da
Am C
la da da da da da da da
G D C
You wrecked it all
