3Rd Gear And 17

           Cadd9
I held the keys to that old 
Chevrolet
        D                    G
And you held the keys to my heart
            Cadd9
I'd throw a fit, hit the dash, get 
out and kick the tire
          D                        
When that old piece of junk 
   G
wouldn't start
            Cadd9
It'd be smokin good, I'd slam down 
the hood
        D                         G
Just to see you there laughin at me
             Cadd9
On the other side of a dirty 
windshield
          D                    G
Lookin as pretty as you could be

[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my 
right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D              G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D
I lost you around 3rd gear and 17

Cadd9  D

[Verse 2]
       Cadd9
In the blink of an eye high school 
flew by
             D               G
You went your way and I went mine
            Cadd9
But we swore we'd make it our love 
could take it
    D                          G
400 miles could stand the test of 
time
    Cadd9
I left that fall to play college 
ball
         D                         
But my dreams would all come to an 
 G
end
                 Cadd9
Cuz you know the big leagues never 
called
                 D                 
And you went and fell in love with 
G
him

[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my 
right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D              G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D

Cadd9  D

[Solo]
Am Em C G
Am Em

[Bridge]
D                                 
Memories flash through my mind 
  Am
like old faded photographs
        Cadd9
I still think about you in that red 
Malibu
       D                  G
And I just can't help but laugh

[Chorus]
        Am           Em
We sure saw a lot of miles
           D                    G
Never even crossed that county line
           Am                 Em
I would've bet the farm, gave my 
right arm
   C               G
So you'd always be mine
       Am
Did we crash and burn
    Em
Or make a wrong turn
   D            G
Or run out of gasoline
       Am              D       C
I lost you around 3rd gear and 17
