INTRO: [D]
VERSE 1:
Well I re-
[D]-member every little thing as if it happened only
[G] yesterday
[C] Parking by the lake and there was
[G] not another car in
[D] sight
And I
[D] never had a girl looking any better than
[G] you did
And all the
[F#] kids at school, they were
[G] wishing they were
[A] me that
[D] night
PRE-CHORUS 1:
And now our
[Bb] bodies are
[F] oh so
[C] close and
[D] tight
You never
[Bb] felt so
[F] good, it never
[C] felt so
[D] right
And we're
[G] glowing like the
[D] metal on the
[A] edge of a
[D] knife,
[G] glowing like the
[D] metal on the
[A] edge of a
[D] knife, Come
[G] on
Well hold
[D] tight Well come
[G] on Well hold
[F] tight

CHORUS 1:
Though it's
[G] cold and
[A] lonely in the
[D] deep
[A] dark
[G] night
I can

BRIDGE:
[G] Ain't no
[A] doubt
[D] about it, we were
[A] doubly

[D] dressed
[G] Ain't no
[A] doubt a-
[D]-bout it;
[G] baby got to
[A] go and
[D] shout it
[G] Ain't no

[G] blessed
Cause we were
[Em7] barely seventeen, and we were barely
[D] dressed

Baby
[D] don't ya hear my heart, you got it drowning out the
[G] radio
I've been
[C] waiting so long, for you to
[G] come along and have some
[D] fun
Well I
[D] gotta let ya know, no you're never gonna re-
[G]-gret it
So open
[F#] up your eyes, I got a
[G] big surprise, it'll
[E] feel all right,

[C] better than it

[C] day
(and we were glowing like a metal on the edge
of a knife) 6x
