INTRO Progression x1
Verse 2:
A little tattered and torn, it still keeps me warm on a Friday night
Bandana patch from kickin some ass in a frat boy fight
You wore it in the stands at the football games
Some ink beneath the sleeve, I still wear your name
And I loved you girl, yeah, I still love you girl
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Am7
I know you grew up, I grew up, too
Em7
You got two kids, hell, I got two kids, too
F/G
...Thank God they look like you
And every night I put it back it on and I'm sixteen sittin next to you
Down by the river if you get the shivers, Ill put it around you
Were makin them memories in the moonlight and red wine, vinyl static
Three words, two rings, and one real cool, black, leather jacket
Well, there's nothin in the world makes me feel more alive
When its just you and me and the moon is high
I slip into the sleeves and with your hand in mine
I go back to the night when I fell into your eyes
Two kids just fallin in love
And here we are right now, good heavens above
Its only gettin better, baby
Its only getting better, baby
I just love that black, leather jacket
