ReGmember last summer when we Bmhad the chance to Am7find each other, start Dmaking romance?
But it Gdidn't come off cause you Bmfound another, without one Am7hand of a clock, what Dgood is the other?
And CI can't find no true love, oh Baby, it's Gso hardG+  
And I Cstill think about you every time I'm riding in Dmy car
[Verse 2]
So I Gwent to the place where everyBmbody hangs out to Am7see what everybody was Dtalking about
And Gover in a corner all aBmlone with you was a Am7boy from last summer singing Dsongs to you
And Che can't sing like I can sing, oh, it's so GhardG+  
And I Cstill think about you every time I'm riding in Gmy car
[Bridge]
Oh, when I'm Amhome alone, I can Cthink of other Dthings to Gdo
But Amwhen I'm Am7rolling in Cforward Dmotion I Amthink about only Dyou
[Verse 3]
It's been a Gyear and a day since I Bmtalked to you, I Am7don't know how I made it, but I Dsure have been blue
And Gevery time I think about what Bmmight have been, I Am7jump in my car and start Driding again
And CI can't find no true love, oh Baby, it's Gso hardG+  
And I Cstill think about you every time I'm riding in Dmy car
