[Intro 1]
[E][G][Em][E][G][E][Em][G][Em][E]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Lorrie
laughs like she just don't care
[G]Got a [Em]red [G]bandana and [Em]raven hair
Sitting in the [G]corner at [Em]The Mercury
Cowboy [G]killers in a [Em]plain white tee

[Verse 2]
And [A]back before the glasses
and the sleeve tattoos
She's just another small town kid
[Em]Sure she's gotta couple problems now
[G]But she doe[Em]sn't try
[G]to keep 'em [Em]hid[E]

[Verse 3]
[D]Her kind of loving is a
[A]little like a fist [E]fight
[Em]Al r[E]ight, alri[Em]ght
[G]The[D] kind of thing you never
[A]see before mid[B]night[G][Em]
Girl, I know you're gonna
wreck this town
Won't tell me [E]where to be when the walls start
[Em]falling

[Interlude 1]
[Em][G][Em][E][G][E][Em][E][Em][G][Em][E][G][Em]

[Verse 4]
Well I've [Em]never seen [G]Jimmy
[Em]in that old Corv[G]ette
He look[Em]s like he[G]ll but[Em] he ain't dead yet
[G]Rou[Em]gh around the edg[G]es but
his [Em]clothes are [G]clean
[Em]Hay seed dressed up like James Dean

[Verse 5]
And [A]any way I play it well I
can't get him to say it
But I think that him and Lorrie were a thing
[Em]Well come now [G]that I think[Em] about[G] it
He [Em]don't say much of [G]anything

[Verse 6]
[Em]Her [E]kind[D] of loving is
a [A]little like a fist [E]fight
Al[Em]right, [E]alrig[Em]ht
[G]The[D] kind of thing you never
[A]see before mid[B]night[G][Em]
Girl, I know you're gonna
wreck [E]this town
Won't tell me where to be when the walls start

[Interlude 2]
falling
[E][Em][G][Em][E][Em][G][E][Em][G][E][G][E]
Well, [Em]it's

[Verse 7]
[E]1 A[G]M and wil[Em]d and[E] lou[G]d
Like sit[Em]tin' in the [G]middle
of a [Em]funnel [G]cloud
[Em]A five-spot for [G]for a sh[Em]ot and a bee[G]r
Now do you wonder how we [Em]wound up [G]here

[Verse 8]
I [A]tell you friend that every now and then
It's like a money game of cut
throat [Em]pool
[G]Lorrie's talking just a [Em]little
[G]too sweet to me
[Em]Jimmy's in [G]the next bar [Em]stool[E]

[Verse 9]
[D]Her kind of loving is a lit[A]tle like a fist fig[E]ht
Al[Em]right, [E]alrig[Em]ht
[G]The[D] kind of thing you never
[A]see before [B]midnight

[Interlude 3]

[Verse 10]
Well it's [Em]throwback [G]punks and [Em]day time d[G]runks
And [Em]PBR's and stouts[E]
[G]Lorrie's over [Gm]by t[Em]he jukebox n[G]ow
Dan[Em]cing [G]to the "Twist and [Em]Shout"[E]
And Jimmy's [G]storming out the [Em]front door
[G]Lord you'd think someone had [E]died
I ain't go[G]ing any[Em]where at all
[G]Now[Em] I'm [E]about to hit[Em] my stri[G]de

[Verse 11]
[D]Her kind of loving is a lit[A]tle like a fist fig[E]ht
Al[Em]right, alright
[G]The[D] kind of thing you never
[A]see before mid[B]night[G][E]
Girl I know you're gonna
wreck this town
Won't you tell me where to be
when the walls start falling
Girl I know you're gonna
wreck this town
Won't you tell me where to be
when the walls start [G]falling[E]
[Em]Girl I [E]know you're gonna
wreck this town
Won't you tell me where to be
when the walls start falling
Girl I know you're gonna
wreck this [Em]town
Won't you tell me where to be when
[E]the walls start [G]falling [E]down
[E]
