Capo: 1st fret

VERSE:
D D C
I got a public education, but it didn’t come from class
C G G D
It came from the long rides home on the bus in the back

D D C
Where we learned how to cuss from them high school kids
C G G D
Throw a punch, take a punch, steal a kiss

D D C
Yeah, she had two years on me the day I turned sixteen
C G G D
I had a fox body Mustang, she had a body like a dream

D D C
We ran on young love, good music, cheap gasoline
C G G D
Found out you can still go too far even when the tank’s on “E”

CHORUS:
D C
Here’s to the lessons that don’t come cheap
G D
To the long lost lovers in the shotgun seats

D C
Hеre’s to the wild and the rеstless souls
G
Who got their street smarts runnin’ down them
D D C
County roads, county roads
G D
County roads

VERSE:
D C
That wrench in my hand sure put a wrench in my plans
G D
But daddy said good help was hard to find

D C
I guess I stood her up one too many Friday nights
G D
She ended up in the truck with a buddy of mine, hey

CHORUS:
D C
Here’s to the lessons that don’t come cheap
G D
To the long lost lovers in the shotgun seats

D C
Hеre’s to the wild and the rеstless souls
G
Who got their street smarts runnin’ down them
D
County roads, county roads

POST-CHORUS:
D C
Na-na-na, na-na-na
G D
County roads (Na-na-na-na-na na)

D C
Na-na-na, na-na-na
G D
Na-na-na-na-na na

BREAK:
D C
Here’s to the hurt from that first hangover
G D
Had us all swearin’ we’d forever stay sober

D C
Here’s to the scrapes and the dents and the scars
G D
On our boots, our cars, our reckless hearts, yeah

CHORUS:
D C
Here’s to the lessons that don’t come cheap
G D
To the long lost lovers in the shotgun seats

D C
Hеre’s to the wild and the rеstless souls
G
Who got their street smarts runnin’ down them
D
County roads, county roads

POST-CHORUS:
D C
Na-na-na, na-na-na
G D
County roads County roads

D C
Na-na-na County roads
G D
Na-na-na-na-na na

OUTRO:
D C
Na-na-na, na-na-na
G D
Na-na-na-na-na na

D C
Na-na-na, na-na-na
G D
Na-na-na-na-na na
