INTRO: D G Cadd9 (2x)
D
Mama said slow down, but I was goin' to fast to listen
D
Said what goes 'round comes around, but only time could get my attention
G D
But as I look back now over advice well given
G A
I can't help wonderin' how it is that I'm still livin'
G D
I had some wild friends, we did some crazy things
A G D
We kept some long late hours, we dared the lightnin'
G D
We took it to the edge, runnin' full speed ahead
A G D
We laid our lives on the line, we dared the lightnin'
D G Cadd9
It really blows my mind, I don't know how that I survived
Still I go back from time to time, visit others by their graveside
Wish mama had lived to see now I have kids of my own

She'd be laughin' at me but mama'd never cast a stone
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
A G D
It was like playin' Russian roulette, always braggin' and bluffin'
A G A
Racin' 'round in our gin bullets, we never stopped at nothin'
SOLO
CHORUS
A G D
We laid our lives on the line, we dared the lightnin'
D D D G Cadd9 D
We dared the lightnin', we dared the lightnin'
D G Cadd9 D
We dared the lightnin'
