Standard tuning, no capo
Intro: D G A D
Verse 1:
D
Cover band ona Flora-Bama deck
D G A
A thousand sun-burned souls
D
Rum-runners and cold Bud Light
D G A
A little Friday night summertime rock and roll
D
Packed in tight, they were singin' along
D A G D
I was hanging on the edge of the crowd
D
When you spilled your beer down the back of my shirt
G A
You had me when I turned around
Chorus:
G A D
Guitars on the Gulf breeze
G A D
Smoke rings 'round the neon
G A Em
Moonlight in your blue eyes
G A D
'Neath that Georgia hat that you had on
G A D
Just one night to hold you
G A Em
No, that ain't what I call fair
G A D
But the memories burn in my mind
G A D
Like those lighters in the air
G A D
Lighters in the air
Verse 2:
D
That one look led to a walk on the beach
D G A D
And more kisses than I could count
D
The best kind of wild and down-home smile
D G A D
I've ever had these arms around
D
The amps were screamin' and the people were too
G A D
While were slow dancing on our bare feet
D
Ain't it funny how we missed it all
G A
And still didn't miss a thing?
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3:
Em
The thought of you won't let me go
Em D Em
It's been holding on for years
It don't take much to take me back
Em A G
Everytime I hear
(Repeat Chorus)
G A D
Raise your lighters in the air
