(CN.C.)And he says, “Our song is a (Em7)slam min’ screen door, (G)sneak in’ out late, tap pin’ (A)on your win dow, when we’re on the phone and you talk real slow ’cause it’s late and your (A)ma ma don’t (D)know.

Our song is the (Em7)way you laugh, the (G)first date.

‘Man, I did n’t (A)kiss her and I should have.’” And when I got (A)home, ’fore I said, “A (Em7)men,” ask in’ God if (G)He

Our song is the (Em7)way he laughs, the (G)first date, “Man, I did n’t (A)kiss him and I should have.” And when I got (A)home, ’fore I said, “A (Em7)men,” ask in’ God if (G)He
