Verse
G Dm
I hear your favorite song,
Am
As it blows through the speakers,
Em
Of this old car,
G Dm
I remember driving up to the top of the Beverly Hills,
Am
We fogged up the windows,
Em
Kissed by the streetlight
G Dm
Oh, Look at these hands,
Am
See what they've done,
D7sus2
It's hard to remember this,
G
Cause we were having so much fun,
Dm
Oh, I was your man,
Am
but that's over and done,
D7sus2
Well I miss your shiny lips,
(intro riff) G Dm Am Em
And the way you chased the sun,
(Oh, chased the sun)
Verse
G Dm
I watched you put your makeup on,
Am
Then rode through a red light
Em
No hands on the wheel,
G Dm
You always wanna hotbox us on the freeway
Am
And you'd tell me to drive home,
Em
With the headlights off
G Dm
Yeah, Look at these hands,
Am
See what they've done,
D7sus2
It's hard to remember this,
G
Cause we were having so much fun,
Dm
Oh, I was your man,
Am
but that's over and done,
D7sus2
Well I miss your shiny lips,
Cmaj7 Em9/D Bm7 Em7
And the way you chased the sun
Bridge
(Look in notes for finger positions)
Cmaj7 Em9/D Bm7 Em7
Was it the way that you smile,
Cmaj7 Em9/D Bm7 Em7
Or was it the way that you laughed at life,
Cmaj7
So flick a nickel anytime,
Em9/D
I would always make you mine,
Bm7 Em7
Even through the headlights,
Cmaj7
Oh, flick a nickel anytime,
Em9/D
I would always make you mine,
Bm7 Em7
Even through the red lights,
G* (Hold)
Now baby
Dm
Look at these hands,
Am
See what they've done,

It's hard to remember this,
G
Cause we were having so much fun,
Dm
Oh, I was your man,
Am
but that's over and done,
D7sus2
Well I miss your shiny lips,
G
And the way you chased the sun
Dm
Look at these hands,
Am
See what they've done,
D7sus2
It's hard to remember this,
G
Cause we were having so much fun,

Oh, I was your man,
Am
but that's over and done,
D7sus2
Well I miss your shiny lips,
