              G               D
Well lookin' back when I met you,

       Am             C
We were shiny, we were brand new

   G                 D             C
A couple kids who'd never been to town

                   G              D
It was a quart of beer, a paper sack,

         Am           C
Leave a penny on the railroad track

     G              D                 C
You let me steal a kiss from you when no one was around
Verse 2
         G            D
Hangin' out, hangin' on

        Am                C
To the night fore it was gone

           G              D             C
Like we'd never see that parking lot again

                 G               D
We were sneakin' in the picture show

          Am                C
And pourin' bourbon in our coke

        G            D             C
Aw and never seein' how the movie ends

       Am                                      D
And I thought that they might ride off in the sun
Chorus
                    G                    D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart

                 Am                       C
You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car

      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn

           G           D
Caught up in your headlights

          Am            C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight

      G              D               C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone

                     G      D      Am      C
But you wrecked it all
Verse 3
                  G                 D
Well on down the road we built our home

      Am            C
Out of bedsheets and Styrofoam

 G               D                 C
Hopin' that the wind might never blow

                   G          D
And it's love or fight, everyday

        Am                 C
Like a Tennessee Williams play

     G              D             C
Not knowin' how it ended when we signed on for the show

       Am                                  D
And I hoped that we might ride off in the sun
Chorus
                    G                    D

You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car

      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn

           G           D
Caught up in your headlights

But you wrecked it all

You wrecked it all
Verse 4
            G                D
Life ain't what it was back then

       Am                      C
Someone smashed the windshield in

          G            D                C
Well you never see it comin' till it's knockin' out your teeth

               G        D
And it's the same Saturday,

           Am              C
Brand new Fords and Chevrolet's

  G                 D              C
Lined up like they never saw the likes of you and me

       Am                                    D
And I watched them as they drove off in the sun
Chorus
                    G                    D
But you wrecked it all, you wrecked my heart

You wrecked our house and you wrecked my car

      G              D                C
Left all the pieces scattered on the lawn

           G           D
Caught up in your headlights

          Am            C
Well I was blindsided in plain sight

      G              D               C
I'll salvage what I may when you're gone

                     G         D    
But you wrecked it all, la da da

       Am            C
la da da da da da da da

                 G      D      C
You wrecked it all
