Chords transcribed by Collin Spencer
[D]Life in the [G]city's exp[Eb]ensive [D]today
I [D]know cuz that's [G]where my girl [Eb]went when my [D]girl went aw[A]ay
She c[G]alls me up now [A]just to calm me [D]down, to [D/C#]calm me[Bb] down
But it's only [G]sound, oh[D]
[D]Boys will come [G]visit there's [Eb]no room for [D]doubt
I [D]try to stay [G]calm but some[Eb]times I just [D]can't help but [A]shout
She [G]runs me down and [A]then she runs to [D]him she [D/C#]says, Aw [Bb]Tim
She says Aw [G]Tim
[A] [/] [/] [/] [ A / / /]
[A]How can they see more than [G]me in her [D]eyes
I real[Em]ize that she's the [C]prize and I'm the [A]fool
[A]How can they think I would [G]sink out of [D]sight
Like a [Em]bright summer [Em/G]moon, [C] [A]
Bright summer moon

Then the cool little riff:
A---1-3-1-3---------------| E-----------3-2~~~~-------|
[D]Curves in the [G]road make the [Eb]driving go [D]slow
When [D]curves are like [G]hers things go [Eb]quickly and [D]I oughta [A]know
She [G]turns me on and [A]then she turns me [D]down, I [D/C#]feel the [Bb]clown
But it's only [G]sound
[A]How can they see more than [G]me in her [D]eyes
I rea[Em]lize that she's the [C]ride and I'm the [A]fool
[A]How can they think I would [G]sink out of [D]sight
Like a [Em]bright summer m[Em/G]oon, [C] [A]
