[Verse 1]
          C
Well, I'd wreck that better day Chevrolet
  G
A thousand times, a thousand ways
        Am                              F
Just to feel the kind of way it made me feel

Behind that wheel
        C
And I'd break my heart come every Fall
   G
To taste that summer and the alcohol
   Am                                      F
On lips that said, "I love you", but never will

I'd kiss her still


[Pre-chorus]
       C
With a heart wide open, I'll go down goin'
    G
I'd rather drown dreamin' than to stay dry hopin'
    Am
I'd rather steal time, than have mine stolen
    F
I'd rather live


[Chorus]
             C
A life I can learn with, swerve with, twist and turn with
G
Take a ninety mile an hour curve with
    Am
The longer I, longer I live
                 F
The more that I, more that I wish
                       C
For some friends I can sip with, take a fifth with
                  G
Find a girl I can kiss through the thin and the thick with
             Am
With the one life I get (With the one life I get)
            F
I want a life I can live
                      C                  G
Not just a life I can live with (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
                      Am                 F
Not just a life I can live with (Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)


[Verse 2]
    C
I'd rather be a leavin' town silhouette
G
Taillights burnin' like cigarettes
        Am
Wastin' good gas on a bad bet
        F
Than to die knowin' I never lived


[Chorus]
             C
A life I can learn with, swerve with, twist and turn with
G
Take a ninety mile an hour curve with
    Am
The longer I, longer I live
                 F
The more that I, more that I wish
                       C
For some friends I can sip with, take a fifth with
                  G
Find a girl I can kiss through the thin and the thick with
             Am
With the one life I get (With the one life I get)
              F
I want a life I can live
                      C                  G
Not just a life I can live with (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
                      Am                 F
Not just a life I can live with (Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)


[Pre-chorus]
       C
With a heart wide open, I'll go down goin'
    G
I'd rather drown dreamin' than to stay dry hopin'
    Am
I'd rather steal time, than have mine stolen
    F
I'd rather live


[Chorus]
             C
A life I can learn with, swerve with, twist and turn with
G
Take a ninety mile an hour curve with
    Am
The longer I, longer I live
                 F
The more that I, more that I wish
                       C
For some friends I can sip with, take a fifth with
                  G
Find a girl I can kiss through the thin and the thick with
             Am
With the one life I get (With the one life I get)
              F
I want a life I can live
                      C          G
Not just a life I can live with (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
                      Am               F
Not just a life I can live with, yeah, yeah (Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)


[Outro]
         C
Ooh-ooh, yeah
                      G
Not just a life I can live with
                      Am
Not just a life I can live with
     F           C
Oh-oh, yeah, yeah
