[Intro]
G[Verse 1]Cadd9  
I know it's a draGg, I know it's a grind
I know that a dolCadd9lar ain't worth a dime
Just trying to keGep up with the Joneses at the end of the Cadd9block
I know you get tGired, I know you get down
I know you get sCadd9ick of this soul sucking town
But let's make a Glittle lemonade if lemons is all we gotCadd9  
[Chorus]
'CGause I'm stuck on you, you're stuck on me
I Cadd9never gotta wonder where my honey be
I Gain't savin' all my sugar for a Saturday night
SCadd9even days a week I got an appetite
ThEme sunsets like a tangerine, let's fCadd9ind a road we've never seen
DoEmn't waste another mile or a minute Cadd9not kissin' me
Life is short, make it swGeetCadd9  
[Verse 2]
Open sky, gliGmpse of heaven, take the top off Cadd9the CJ-7
Let that surGfside San Anne wind mess up your Cadd9hair
And let that Gwindshield frame the ocean
Radio keeCadd9p coast-to-coastin'
If we don't gGet where we're going baby I don'Cadd9t care
I'm already there
[Chorus]
'CGause I'm stuck on you, you're stuck on me

[Verse 1]

I know it's a drag, I know it's a grind

Life is short, make it sweet

[Verse 2]

G Cadd9

Open sky, glimpse of heaven, take the top off the CJ-7

Let that surfside San Anne wind mess up your hair

And let that windshield frame the ocean

If we don't get where we're going baby I don't care

I'm already there
