[Intro 1]
[Em][D][G][C][D]
[Em]Uh y[D]eah,[G] y[C]eah[D]

[Verse 1]
[Em]When I was young[D], I fell in love[G]
We [C]used to hold hands, man,
that was [D]enough (yeah)
[Em]Then we grew up, start[D]ed to touc[G]h
Used to [C]kiss underneath the light
on the back of the [D]bus
[Em]Oh no, your daddy didn't like [D]me much[G]
And he [C]didn't believe me when I said
you were the [D]one
[Em]Every day [D]she found a way[G]
out of the [C]window to sneak out late

[Pre-chorus 1]
She used to meet me on the [Em]Eastside
In the [D]city where the [G]sun don't [C]set
And every [D]day you know that [Em]we ride
Through the back[D]streets of a [G]blue Cor[C]vette
Baby, you know [D]I just wanna l[Em]eave ton[D]ight
[G]We can go [C]anywhere we want
Drive [D]down to the [Em]coast,
jump in the [D]seat
[G]Just take my [C]hand and come with me, yeah

[Chorus 1]
[Em]We can do anything if we[D] put our minds[G] to it
[C]Take your whole life
then you put a [D]line through it
[Em]My love is yours up, if you're willi[D]ng to take[G] it
[C]Give me your heart
'cause I ain't gonna [D]break it
[Em]So come away, star[D]ting today[G]
Start a [C]new life,
together in a different [D]place
We know that [Em]love is how these ideas
[D]came to [G]be
So baby, [C]run away, away with [D]me

[Verse 2]
[Em]Seventeen
and [D]we got a [G]dream to have a [C]family
A house and everything in bet[D]ween
And then, oh,
[Em]suddenly we turn[D]ed twenty- three[G]
Now we got [C]pressure for taking our life
more [D]seriously
We got our [Em]dead-end jobs and [D]got bills to [G]pay
[C]Have old friends and know our [D]enemies
Now [Em]I, I'm thinking back to wh[D]en I was y[G]oung
Back to the [C]day when I was falling in love

[Pre-chorus 2]
He used to meet me on the [Em]Eastside
In the [D]city where the [G]sun don't [C]set
And every [D]day you know that [Em]we ride
Through the back[D]streets in a [G]blue Cor[C]vette
Baby, you know [D]I just wanna l[Em]eave ton[D]ight
