Red Ragtop

Intro: G   Am

G
I was twenty and she was eighteen
         Am
We were just about as wild as we 
were green
        G                 Am
In the ways of the world
     G
She picked me up in that red ragtop
         Am
We were free of the folks, hiding 
from the cops
      G                            
On a summer night, runnin' all the 
Am
red lights
        G
And we parked way out at a clearing 
in a grove
         Am
And the night was as hot as a coal 
burning stove
         G                       
We were cookin' with gas, ooh it had

                     C   G    Am
In the back of that red ra---gtop
          C      G     Am
She said please don't stop

          G
Well the very first time her mother

     G         Am
For two weeks
       G
I was out of a job and she was in 
school
    Am
But life was fast and the world was 
cruel
         G                         
We were young and wild, we decided 
        Am
not to have a child
       G
So we did what we did and we tried 
to forget
        Am
And we swore up and down there would
 be no regrets
        G                          
In the morning light, but on the 
   Am
way home that night

                     C   G    Am
On the back of that red ra---gtop
          C      G     Am
She said please don't stop
       G    Am
Lovin' me

         C        G     Am        G
We took one more trip around the sun
            C          G          
But it was all make believe in the
  Am
 end
      C         G        Am    Em
No I can't say where she is today
          Am7                    
I can't remember who I was back 
Bm   C   Am
then

G    Am

         G
Well you do what you do and you pay 
for your sins
            Am
And there's no such thing as what 
might have been
          G                       
That's a waste of time, drive you 
Am
outta your mind
       G
I was stopped at a red light just 
yesterday
  Am                               
Beside a young girl in a Cabriolet 
         G
and her eyes were green
                 Am
And I was in an old scene

                   C   G     Am
I was back in that red ra---gtop
        C   G   Am
On the day she stopped
       G    Am
Lovin' me
                   C   G     Am
I was back in that red ra---gtop
        C   G   Am
