Chords

Tuned a half step down. I personally think full open/barre chords sound better, but power chords will work fine, too. A - x02220 F#m - 244222 D - xx0232 E - 022100 Bm - x24432 C#m - x46654 [Intro] A F#m D A E F#m D E (x2) [Verse 1]
A                 D                Bm          C#m       D
The graffiti over 309 used to say things that I could romanticize

    A                               D                          Bm
Like "I'll always love you Katie" or "Bernard Herman lives" or maybe "loves"

        C#m           D
I could never quite decipher or decide

    E            D                         E
But now the overpass says things like "DRAT"

                          D
And I'm not sure what to make of it      
[Interlude] A F#m D A E F#m D E [Verse 2]
A                    D
I watch the highway lines unwind

               Bm                  C#m                  D
Thought about where I could go and who I would leave behind

A         E
I stayed anchored here

       D                                 Bm           C#m
Cause only I could find a way to make a year I hated seem nostalgic

D
I can't say goodbye

E                     D
And I've been having car crash dreams

             E
Not sure if they mean anything

         D
But it keeps out of the driver's seat
[Chorus]
F#m               D
I remember me at eighteen

               A
Naked in your parents' basement 

Bm  
Young and careless

D                  E                  
Watching you blow smoke rings

F#m                   D
And I remember me at eighteen

         A         Bm
You sat stoic in front of me

   D               E       
A portrait of who we'd someday be
[Interlude] D Bm (x3) [Bridge]
D
Me versus the highway (me vs. the highway)

Bm                                     A
Me versus the highway (me vs. the highway)

     Bm   D E    F#m              E               
And I'll say the best years may still be ahead of me
[Interlude] A F#m D A E [Chorus]
F#m               D
I remember me at eighteen

               A
Naked in your parents' basement

Bm
Young and careless

D                  E
Watching you blow smoke rings

F#m                   D
And I remember me at eighteen

         A        Bm
You sat stoic in front of me

   D                E
A portrait of who we'd someday be
[Outro] A F#m D A E F#m D E A
