Country singin' bangin' Gloud guitars C

The biggest stages to the Gsmallest bars C

We were Bbcold beer drinkin, What was I thinking?

Just the Gother night C

At the after party Grockin' just right C

This little country girl caGught my eye C

She was Dbackstage, legal age, hangin' with the drummer

When a Fbig dude, attitude, grabbed her by the collar

Days Of Dark

Key: GEasy

GYou can't make a wish, on a star, when they're all burnt Cout

GYou can't find that hope, swallowed up, in the deepest Cdark

The Glight at the end of the Dtunnel's a train

You're Emtied to the tracks with the heaviest chain

GLet's chase away, the storm and the rain and the Emdays of darkC

GYour hand in mine, there's no better time or a Emplace to startC

GLet's raise a glass, to the Dpain of the past

And Emnever look back on these Cbroken hearts

GRight where horizon, the Dsun started shining

So Emopen your eyes and Clet's say goodbye to the Gdays of dark G Em C

It's Ggood to feel your kiss, a smile, back on my Cface

It's Ggood to feel that rush, of blood, back in my Cveins

Let's Emdance through the fire, break Dout of this cage

Let's Cturn off the music, and Dlet's turn the page

GLet's chase away, the storm and the rain and the Emdays of darkC

GYour hand in mine, there's no better time or a Emplace to startC

GLet's raise a glass, to the Dpain of the past

And Emnever look back on these Cbroken hearts

GRight where horizon, the Dsun started shining

So Emopen your eyes and Clet's say goodbye to the Gdays of dark G Em C

GStill in the weeds, not Dout of the woods

But Csomething in my heart

Tells me that this is the Cstart

Of something Dgood

GLet's chase away, the storm and the rain and the Emdays of darkC

GYour hand in mine, there's no better time or a Emplace to startC

What was I thinking

Key: ECapo 1Medium

EBecky was the beauty from south Alabama,

Her Cdaddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer,

I tDhink he even did a little time in the slammer,

AWhat was I thinkin'

EShe snuck out one night and met me by the front gate,

Her Cdaddy came out a wavin' that twelve guage,

we Dtore out of the drive, he peppered my tailgate,

AWhat was I thinkin'

BOh I knew there'd be hell to pay,

BBut that crossed my mind a little too late,

Cause I was Ethinkin' 'bout a Dlittle white Atank top,

GSittin' right Ethere in the mDiddle by mAe,

I was Ethinkin' 'bout a Dlong kiss,

AMan I gotta geGt,

EGoin' where the Dnight might lAead,

BI know what I was feelin'D D A A

But, what was I thinkin'

By the county line, the cop's were nippin' on my heels

Pulled off the road, kicked it in four-wheel

Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field

What was I thinkin'

>From the other side, she was hollerin' "faster"

Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin'

Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin'

What was I thinkin'

Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay

But, that crossed my mind a little too late

Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top

Sittin' right there in the middle by me

I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss

Man I gotta get

Goin' where the night might lead

I know what I was feelin'

But, what was I thinkin

When a mountain of a man with a 'Born To Kill' tattoo

Tried to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth

Ran outside, hood-slidin' like Bo Duke

What was I thinkin'

Finally got her home at half past two

Her daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway

Put it in park, and he started my way

What was I thinkin'

GOh...what was I thinkin'

CWhat was I thinkin'

Then she gave a Dcome-and-get-Dme grin D

DLike a bullet, we were gone agaiBn

Cause I was Ethinkin' 'bout a Dlittle white Atank top,

GSittin' right Ethere in the mDiddle by mAe,

I was Ethinkin' 'bout a Dlong kiss,

AMan I gotta geGt,

EGoin' where the Dnight might lAead,

BI know what I was feelin'D D A A

But, what was I thinkin'
