Red Ragtop Tim McGraw
(some various picking.)
[G]I was twenty and she was eighteen
We were just abo[C]ut as wild as we were green in the ways of the [G]world[C]
She'd pick[G] me up in that red ragtop
we were free of[C] the folks and hiding from the cops
on a summ[G]er night, runnin all the red lights [Cadd9]
so we'd park [G]way out in a clearing in a grove
and the nigh[C]t was as hot as a coal burnin stove
we were co[G]okin with gas,
oh it ha[Cadd9]d to last
in the back of that red rag [C]top[G] [Am]
(some various [C]picking.)[G] [Am]
she said please dont stop
(silent) G
well the very first time her mother met me
her gre[C]en eyed girl had been a mother to be for two weeks [G] [C]
i was out[G] of a job and she was in school
[C]life was fast and the world was cruel
we were young [G]and wild,
we decided not to have a chi[C]ld
so we did[G] what we did and we tried to forget
and we swore[C] up and down there would be no regrets in the morning light [G]
but on the way home that[Cadd9] night
on the back of that red rag t[C]op [G] [Am]
she said plea[C]se dont st[G]op lo[Am]ving me [G] [Cadd9]
we took one mo[C]re trip aroun[G]d the s[Am]un [G]
and it was all m[C]ake believe in t[G]he end [Am]
no i ca[C]nt say wher[G]e she is today [Am] [G]
(some various picki[C]ng.)[G] [Am]
i cant remember who i was back then
well you do w[G]hat you do
and you pay for your sins and theres no such thing as w[C]hat might have been
thats a was[G]te of time,
drive you out o[C]f your mind
i was sto[G]pped at a red light just yesterday beside a young girl i[C]n a cabriolet
and her eyes[G] were green
and i was in an old scen[Cadd9]e
i was back in that red rag [C]top [G] [Am]
on the day [C]she s[G]topp[Am]ed lovin me [G] [Cadd9]
i was back in that red rag [C]top [G] [Am]
on the day [C]she s[G]top[Am]ped lovin me [G]
