Intro: D G A

D
Tire swings, summer dreams, honeysuckle on the breeze
G              A
Whistle County creek
D
Laying in the green grass, I was watching clouds pass
G                       A
Baby, you were watching me
D
Cold barn struck bed, everything you said
G                A
Slowly educating me
G                            A
I never had a lesson so sweet

            D         G
You can get high on a first kiss
            D                           A
You can get by with sweet tea and God's graces
        G                      D
You can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
A         Em
Nothing's shatterproof
       G                 Em                 G
You can crash and burn and come back someone new
          A                   D        G       A
And that's what I learned from you

D
Autumn rain, window pane, looking how the leaves change
G                    A
Just like the two of us
D
Still got your laugh, your ghost, your jacket
G                         A
Guess I loved you way too much
D
But I'm a little smarter, my heart's a little harder
G                             A
But it's still soft enough to cry
G                            A
Cause I remember those times; I remember

            D         G
You can get high on a first kiss
            D                           A
You can get by with sweet tea and God's graces
        G                      D
You can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
A         Em
Nothing's shatterproof
        G                 Em                 G
You can crash and burn and come back someone new
           A                   D        G       A
And that's what I learned from you

( D G A ) (2x)

Em
Saw you just the other day
All that I could think to say was,
A
“Hey, how have you been?”
Em
You caught me with that old smile
Said, “It's really been a while,
A
And I still think about back when..”

               D         G
We used to get high on a first kiss
             D                      A
We could get by with sweet tea and Jesus
        G                      D
You can love like a sinner and lose like a winner
A                Em
Nothing's shatterproof
        G                  Em                G
You can crash and burn and come back someone new
           A                   D        G
And that's what I learned from you

           A                   D        G
Oh, that's what I learned from you
       A                          D         G
That's what I learned from you, oh you, oh
       A                   D            G        A   D
That's what I learned from you, oh yeah
