Springsteen Eric Church
This is how I like to play the intro and the little riff part after each chorus in
the song, its obviously a piano in the actual song but this is how I play it on
the Guitar, i think it sounds pretty good. (standard tuning; no capo) i also
included the whole song lyrics and chords. ,Taylor R

[Bm]flipflops and c[A]ut off jeans
[D]somewhere between that settin sun,
[D]im on fire and born to run,
[G]you looked at me and i was done,
but we were [Bm]just gettin st[A]arted.
[D]i was sangin to you, you were sangin to me,
[D]i was so alive never been more free,
[G]fired up my daddys lighter and we sang o[Bm]h whoa oh o[A]h oh ohh

[D] took the long way to your house,
and [G]I can still hear the sound,
of you [Bm]sayin dont go[A] (oh ohh)
Chorus:
[D]when I think about you,
[A]i think about seventeen,
[Bm]i think about my old jeep,

[D]back when I was gasoline and this ole ta[D]ttoo had brand new ink,
and we[G] didn't care what your moma'd think bout your [Bm]name on my [A]arm.
baby[D] is it spring or is it summer,
th[D]e guitar sound or the beat of that drummer,
you [G]hear sometimes late at night on [Bm]your [A]radio.
even[D] though youre a million miles away,
when[D] you hear born in the USA,
do [G]you relive those glory days from [Bm]so long[A] ago? (oh ohh)
