Verse
[C] [G] [Am] [F]
In the [C]backseats of burned out [G]cars.
In the [Am]disenchantment [F]lane.
The ideal [C]angels twist and[G] turn, ask [Am]forgiveness for future [F]mistakes.
But you and[C] I we've been through [G]this.
Maybe [Am]a 100 times [F]before.
Always [C]hitching rides with [G]strangers.
Papa [Am]warned us about [F]before
Chorus
But you know the[C] summer always brought it.
That [F]wild and reckless breeze.
And in the [C]backseat, we're just trying to find some room for our[F] knees.
And in the [Am]backseat, we're just trying to[G] find some room to[F] breathe.
Verse 2
And in the [C]wild desert [G]sun, we drove [Am]straight on through the [F]night.
We rode a [C]fever out of [G]Austin, Dreamed of [Am]California [F]nights.
Come [C]July, we'll ride the [G]Ferris Wheel, Go [Am]round and round and [F]round.
And If you [C]never let me [G]go, well I will [Am]never let you [F]down.
Chorus
But you know the [C]summer always brought it.
That [F]wild and reckless breeze.
And in the [C]backseat, we're just trying to find some room for our [F]knees.
And in the [Am]backseat, we're just trying to [G]find some room to[F] breathe.
And now in the [Am]backseat, we're just trying to [G]find some room to[F] breathe.
Bridge
And [Em]these cowboys all go [F]crazy in the [G]heat.[G]
Chasing the[Em] lights in all the [F]girls
Along the[G] Santa Anna streets [G]that they're just dying to [C]meet.
[F] It meant nothing to [C]me.[F]
You know the [C]summer always brought it.
That [F]wild and reckless breeze.
And in the [C]backseat we're just trying to find some room for our [F]knees.
