right G D And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife G D Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife G D C'mon Hold on tight G F A C'mon Hold on tight ■ [Chorus] G A D A G Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night D Bm G D I can see paradise by the dashboard light [Verse] G A D Ain't no doubt about it G We were doubly blessed Em 'cause we were barely seventeen G D And we

regret it F#7 F#m F#7 G So open up your eyes I got a big surprise E It'll feel all right A D Well I wanna make your motor run D7 F C D ■ And now our bodies are oh so close and tight D7 F C D It never

shot up the middle D E Look at him go This boy can really fly E He's rounding first and really turning it on now E7 He's not letting up at all he's gonna try for second A The ball is bobbled out in center E And here comes the throw and what a throw Em7 A E7 He's gonna slide in head first here he comes he's out E7 No wait safe safe at second base E E7 This kid really makes things happen out there E7 Batter steps up to the plate Bm7 E7 Here's the pitch and he's going and what a jump he's got E He's trying for third here's the throw it's in the dirt safe at third E7 Holy cow stolen base He's taking a pretty big lead out there Em Almost daring him to try and pick him off Em7 Em The pitcher glances over winds up and it's bunted Em Bunted down the third base line the suicide squeeze is on Em Here he comes squeeze play it's gonna be close E Here's the throw here's the play at the plate E Holy cow I think he's gonna make it A G Stop right there A I gotta know right now A Before we go any further G Do you love me G Will you love me forever D Do you need me D Will you never leave me C G Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life A Will you take me away and will you make me your wife [Chorus] G Do you love me G Will you love me forever D Do you need me D Will you never leave me C G Will you make me happy for the rest of my life A Will you take me away and will you make me
