[Primeira Parte]

          E                A
You're a flower drawn in sidewalk chalk
  E                            B
Beautiful but she won't stick around for long
   A                  B        A         E      A
You'll be gone from here in a matter of hours
           C#m                      A      B    E    A
After the first summer rain washes all of you away
And every single trace of your
      E         A
Late night, drunk phone call
    E                    B
Tellin' me you love me after all
         A                          B            A            E      A
I still taste the red wine on your lips on the side of the phone
         C#m              A       B          E
But somehow we lose connection and then you're gone

          B
If I'd a held on a little longer
       A
Loved you a little stronger
         E                                 A
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me
         B               A
Showed up uninvited to be right by your side now, darlin'
        E                  B       E
Would we be more than a good memory

         E                A
You're a southern livin' magazine
   E           B
So elegant and pristine
       A                B      A      E         A
Well, you smell like a rich woman's cologne
       C#m                  A      B             E
Soon someone's bound to pick you up and take you home

[Refrão]

          B
If I'd a held on a little longer
       A
Loved you a little stronger
         E                                 A
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me
         B               A
Showed up uninvited to be right by your side now, darlin'
        E                  B       E
Would we be more than a good memory
          B
If I'd a held on a little longer
        A
Loved you a little stronger
         E                                 A
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me
         B                A
Showed up uninvited to your hill countryside apartment
        E                   B       E
Would we be more than a good memory
   B          E
A good memory
