(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 and Play Eb in the pre-chorus)
(Verse 1 – Smooth, rolling intro, groove)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
Drove slow into jungle town
Rusted ride, dreams inbound
Jenny holds the wheel tight
Jimmy hums, We’re here to fight
(Pre-Chorus – Rhythmic and punchy)
(Roughly: Cm - Eb - Cm - Eb)
Don’t stall be someone else’s sorry, We’ll be fine…
When it comes to drink the rest of the story, We’ll be fine, Feel right
Riff
(Chorus – Bold, driving, anthemic)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
It’s gonna take a long
Broken, bent, hearts are so strong
She’s been runnin’, He’s been gone
Jimmy’s stayin’, can't go wrong
(Verse 2 – grit, bluesy push forward)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
Took a shot, stayed a long time
Fiery chest, burns his spine
Neon buzz, jukebox wine
Jenny says, “I’ll make you mine”
(Pre-Chorus – Snappier, sharper bite)
(Roughly: Cm - Eb - Cm - Eb)
Time won’t wait if you ignore it, time to fly…
Steppin’ back into the story, Say goodbye, Goodbye
Riff
(Chorus – Link and anthem repeat, soaring emotion)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
It’s gonna take a long time
Broken, bent, hearts are so strong
She’s been runnin’, He’s been gone
Jimmy’s stayin’, can't go wrong
(Verse 3 – Slow-build, Mayer Hawthorne-meets-Goo Goo Dolls reflection)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
Jenny’s road, a long run
Stars don’t fall in straight lines
Love ain't fast, love ain't blind
But Jimmy swears, “We’ll be just fine”
(Bridge – breakdown, dreamy and raw)
Thunder kiss into lightning be all mine, all mine…
Lost in love, lost in the glory, Don’t let go, tonight…
Riff
(Chorus – Final push, strong and resolute)
(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
It’s gonna take a long time
Broken, bent, hearts are so strong
She’s been runnin’, He’s been gone
Jimmy’s stayin’, can't go wrong
(Outro – Gentle, warm fade-out, soulful)(Roughly: Cm - Fm7 - Cm - Fm7)
Time ain’t gonna break us down
Jimmy grins, hands in his coat
Jenny sways, sings one last note
They are spinnin’, night rolls on
(Roughly: Cm - Eb - Cm - Eb)
On and on, Where we did we go wrong
On and on, Where we belong
RIFF:
