[Intro]

D C G A F

[Verse]

D C G A F

I know a little place we can go

D C G A F

Two rights, a left, right passed the liquor store

D C G A F

There's a little trail only me might know

D C G A F

With nothing but top cards in my hand to hold

[Chorus]

Is where I smoke my first smoke

Drank beer from a can

Kissed the first girl,

A F

Skipped school with my friends

D C G A F

Where I went to turn bad to good

Come on lay with me,

No better place to be

G A

Our little secret's safe in these trees,

D C G A F

Cause out here baby is just all understood

D C G A F

What happens in the woods, stays in the woods

[Interlude]

D C G A F

[Verse]

D C G A F

No city lights going 9 to 5 tonight

D C G A F

Just you and me kissing while the moon and the stars shine

Dancing in the breeze, maybe drinking a little red wine

D C G A F

Roll around in the leaves, from the world we'll hide

[Solo]

D C G A F

[Bridge]

D C G A

Come on girl, leave your iPhone at home

We're gonna kick it back

With a blanket and a radio

D C G A F

I know a little place where we could go and lay low

Is where I smoke my first smoke

Drank beer from a can

Kissed the first girl,

A F

Skipped school with my friends

D C G A F

Where I went to turn bad to good

Come on lay with me,

No better place to be
