[Intro]

D5
[Verse 1-1]
---------------------
D5
Well I remember every little thing
G5
As if it happened only yesterday
C5
Parking by the lake
G5 A5
And there was not another car in sight
D5
And I never had a girl
G5
Looking any better than you did
F#5
And all the kids at school
G5 A5
They were wishing they were me that night
[Verse 1-2]
---------------------
D5 A#5 F5 C5 D5
And now our bodies are, oh, so close and tight
A#5 F5 C5 D5
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
G5 D5
C'mon, hold on tight
G5 F5
Well, c'mon, hold on tight
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
A5 G5 A5 D5 A5 G5
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
D5 B5 G5 E5 D5
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
[Bridge 1 (1)]
---------------------
G5 A5 D5
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
G5 E5
'Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed
D5 G5 A5 D5
Ain't no doubt about it
G5 A5 D5
Baby, got to go out and shout it
G5 A5 D5
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
G5 E5
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed
[Verse 2-1]
---------------------
D5 D5
Baby, don't you hear my heart
G5
You got it drowning out the radio
C5
I've been waiting so long
G5 A5
For you to come along and have some fun
D5
Well, I gotta let you know
G5
No, you're never gonna regret it
F#5
So open up your eyes
G5
I got a big surprise
E5
It'll feel all right
A5
Well, I wanna make your motor run
D5 A#5 F5 C5 D5
And now our bodies are, oh, so close and tight
A#5 F5 C5 D5
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
G5 D5
C'mon, hold on tight
G5 F5
Well, c'mon, hold on tight
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
A5 G5 A5 D5 A5 G5
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
D5 F#5 G5
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
E5 D5 B5 A5
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
F#5 A#5 G5 D5 A5 D5
Paradise by the dashboard light
[Bridge 1 (2)]
---------------------
G5 A5
You got to do what you can
D5 G5 A5
And let Mother Nature do the rest
D5 G5 A5 D5
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
G5 E5
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely
[Bridge 2]
---------------------
A5
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
[Break (1)]
---------------------
E5
OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle
Look at him go. This boy can really fly!
He's rounding first and really turning it on now
He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for Second
The ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the throw
And what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first
Here he comes, he's out! No, wait, safesafe at second base
This kid really makes things happen out there
Batter steps up to the plate, here's the pitchhe's going
And what a jump he's got. He's trying for third, here's the throw
It's in the dirtsafe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!
He's taking a pretty big lead out there
Almost daring him to try and pick him off
The pitcher glances over, winds up, and it's bunted
Bunted down the third base line, the suicide squeeze is on!
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close
Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate
A5
Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!
[Verse 3]

---------------------
F5
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord, I was crazed
C5
And when the feeling came upon me
F5
Like a tidal wave
C5
I started swearing to my god
G5
And on my mother's grave
F5 G5 C5
That I would love you to the end of time
F5 G5 C5 G5
I swore I'd love you to the end of time

C5 G5 C5
So now I'm praying for the end of time

To hurry up and arrive

'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you

I don't think that I can really survive

I'll never break my promise or forget my vow

But God only knows what I can do right now

Praying for the end of time
F5 G5
So I can end my time with
