D 
The night is young and so are we, so you what you say 
                            G                      
We go and see it all for ourselves? 
Yeah, yeah 
           D 
There's a spot I know down the road we can go 
                           G 
Only me and you and no one else 
Yeah, yeah 

                       Bm 
I ain't looking for a crowd 
                      Em7 
Another night on the town 
          G 
I want a one way ticket where the creek and crickets 
Are the only sound 

                 D 
So baby, pick me up, I'll be in the drive 
                   Em7 
Take me where the moon's hanging in the sky 
        Bm                                                  G 
We can park it by the river, get out and throw the tailgate down down down 
                 D 
You can steal a kiss, maybe even two 
          Em7 
Only the track and the trees gonna see what we do 
Bm                                        G 
All I wanna be is wrapped in your arms, laying in the dark,

        D 
We can rename constellations while we're making wishes 
                            G 
Don't it make you feel so small? 
Yeah, yeah 
        D 
We can talk about forever for a minute, maybe never, 
                            G 
Just kiss and say nothing at all 
Yeah, yeah 

                       Bm 
Baby, hurry up and get here 
            Em 
So we can disappear 
     G 
The clouds are breaking, don't keep me waiting 
Never seen a night this clear 

                 D
