[Intro]
G7 G6 G G/A G/B x4
[Verse 1]
G
A little creek you could spit across
C/G
Well, Jimmy and me each took one more toss
Em
Oh, our spinners bright in the evening air
D D/C G/B D/A
People always said, "There ain't no fish in there"
G
Well, grown-ups they ain't always right
C
'Cause Jimmy and me walked home slow that night
Em
Well, right down Main Street in our PF Flyers
D D/C G/B D/A
With two five pound bass making grown men liars
[Chorus 1]
G
And Jimmy, if I had known
C/G
I might have stopped fishing right then
Em
It's just as well we don't know when things
D D/C G/B D/A G
Will never be that good again, mmm
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G
Hayride on an Autumn night
C/G
Well, we was 15 if I remember right
Em
We were far apart at the start of the ride
D D/C G/B D/A
Yeah, but somehow we ended up side by side
G
Oh, we hit a bump and she grabbed my arm
C/G
And the night was as cold as her lips were warm
Em
And I shivered as her hand held mine
D D/C G/B D/A
Yeah, and then I kissed her one more time
[Chorus 2]
G
And Jane, if I had known
C/G
I might have stopped kissing right then
Em
It's just as well we don't know when things
D D/C G/B D/A G
Will never be that good again, mmm

[Verse 3]
G
She was older than me, I guess
C/G
And summer was invented for her to wear that dress
Em
Oh I, I knew about risk and she knew about proof
D D/C G/B D/A
And that night she took me up on the roof
G
We could see the lights of the little towns
C/G
We could watch the August stars come down
Em
Oh, the shooting stars and the meteorites
D D/C G/B D/A
Yeah, we went on a ride through the sky that night
[Chorus 3]
G
And, oh, if I had known
C/G
I'd do it all over again
Em
Some things just get better and better
D D/C G/B D/A G
And better than they already been, mmm
