Verse 1

              G               D
Well lookin' back when I met you,
       Am             C
We were shiny, we were brand new
   G                 D             C
A couple kids who'd never been to town
                   G              D
It was a quart of beer, a paper sack,
         Am           C
Leave a penny on the railroad track
     G              D                 C
You let me steal a kiss from you when no one was around



Verse 2

         G            D
Hangin' out, hangin' on
        Am                C
To the night fore it was gone
           G              D             C
Like we'd never see that parking lot again
                 G               D
We were sneakin' in the picture show
          Am                C
And pourin' bourbon in our coke
        G            D             C
Aw and never seein' how the movie ends
       Am                                      D
And I thought that they might ride off in the sun



Chorus

                    G                    D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
                 Am                       C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
           G           D
Caught up in your headlights
          Am            C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
      G              D               C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
                     G      D      Am      C
But you wrecked it all



Verse 3

                  G                 D
Well on down the road we built our home
      Am            C
Out of bedsheets and Styrofoam
 G               D                 C
Hopin' that the wind might never blow
                   G          D
And it's love or fight, everyday
        Am                 C
Like a Tennessee Williams play
     G              D             C
Not knowin' how it ended when we signed on for the show
       Am                                  D
And I hoped that we might ride off in the sun



Chorus

                    G                    D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
                 Am                       C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
           G           D
Caught up in your headlights
          Am            C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
      G              D               C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
                     G      D      Am
But you wrecked it all
                 G      D      C
You wrecked it all



Verse 4

            G                D
Life ain't what it was back then
       Am                      C
Someone smashed the windshield in
          G            D                C
Well you never see it comin' till it's knockin' out your teeth
               G        D
And it's the same Saturday,
           Am              C
Brand new Fords and Chevrolet's
  G                 D              C
Lined up like they never saw the likes of you and me
       Am                                    D
And I watched them as they drove off in the sun




Chorus

                    G                    D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart
                 Am                       C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car
      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn
           G           D
Caught up in your headlights
          Am            C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight
      G              D               C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone
                     G         D    
But you wrecked it all, la da da
       Am            C
la da da da da da da da
                 G      D      C
You wrecked it all
