[G] Well we [Am] danced in the back of the [C] pickup truck
Till the [G] sky turned [D] to [G] rosy
And [Am] we drove into town and [C] we danced some more
Till [G] the ballrooms all were [D] closing
And [D] that red dress baby that your [Am] sister made
When you [Em] dance it [G] sure looks [C] fine
And we were [D] both grown old and [Am] we're looking back
On [Em] these wild [G] and reckless [C] times
But [Em] these are the best days of [C] our lives

[G] Thinking I was gonna live [D] [G] forever
[Am] I was fifteen going [C] on twenty-five
And [G] we're swimming out in [D] that river
I jumped like a dog to [Am] the current girl
[Em] Leaving everything [G] I knew [C] behind
And when [D] I got to the shore of this [Am] old man's land
I guess [Em] I knew exactly where I would [C] find
In [Em] these wild [G] and reckless [C] times

[G] You can [D]
[Am] trade your soul [C] for the whole wide world, [G] but the deal no man can ever reveal.
[D] When they kick you in the door, [A] you don't have no clues [C] about the world, [G] but the [C] Lord is mine.
[D] You are sin as it chases [A] out through the field, [Em] and young, it just ain't [C] no crime.
Oh, [Em] you ain't wild, and you ain't no fool, but you ain't no fool.

[D] And all them busted out windows, like [Am] a dead man's eyes, [Em] I guess I knew [G] it was a sign.
