INTRO

C-C-F F-G-Am C-C-F F-G-C

VERSE
Y[C/E]ou were hanging your feet off
The tailgate of Billy [G/B]Don’s Ford
I[C/E] grew up in this little bitty town
Never seen[G/B] you before
You [C/E]were swayin' in the moonlight
While the radio played and I’ve,
Had [C/E]that song in my head[G/B] all day, yeah

[C/E-C/E-F] [F-G-C]
It was a[C/E] sweet, southern soulful thing
That got me down deep
You[C/E] caught me staring at you
But you’re smilin’ [G/B]back at me
S[C/E]tarted slinging that air guitar
Man, you sure can play and I’ve,
Had [C/E]that song in my head [G/B]all day

CHORUS
I don’t know who sings it
I keep searchin’ the radio
I just wanna hear it
So I can watch that video
I got in my head of the blue-eyed [G/F]boy
Dancing in the bed of a two-tone [G/F]Ford
Oh, Lord, is it love,
I just can’t say, but I’ve,
Had [C/E]that song in my head [G/B]all day

[C/E-C/E-F] [F-G-C]
VERSE
I said, “[C/E]How ‘bout an autograph
For ya, your biggest fan.”
You [C/E]wrote your name and your number
In the palm [G/B]of my hand
My [C/E]heart and that big bass speaker
Were thumping away and I’ve,
Had [C/E]that song in my head [G/B]all day

CHORUS
I don’t know who sings it
I keep searchin’ the radio
I just wanna hear it
So I can watch that video
I got in my head of the blue-eyed [G/F]boy
Dancing in the bed of a two-tone [G/F]Ford
Oh, Lord, is it love,
I just can’t say…

BREAK

CHORUS
Don’t know who sings it
I keep searchin’ the radio
I just wanna hear it
So I can watch that video
I got in my head of the blue-eyed [G/F]boy
Dancing in the bed of a two-tone [G/F]Ford
Oh, Lord, is it love,
I just can’t say but I’ve,
Had [C/E]that song in my head [G/B]all day
[C/E] playin’ in my head [G/B]all day

OUTRO

C-C-F F-G-Am C2-C/E-F2 F5-G5-C5

VERSE 1
[(F)] I could catch just like a candle melt myself down to an end
and have no way of ever coming back round here again
or I could glow just like an amber rising out of an autumn fire
drifting to the heavens floating higher and higher
you better hide your matches, boy
I could sparkle like thin white paper wrapped tight round some cigarette
and leave nothing but the smell of smoke and the bitter taste of regret
or I could get hot like them coals that turn the water into steam
and fall down around you like some misty morning
you better hide your matches, boy
you better hide your matches, boy, oh

CHORUS

cause I’m bound to lose all I am right here in your arms
and it ain’t gonna take much
and it ain’t gonna take long
so you best turn your eyes if youre not ready tonight
to watch me burn like this
you better hide your matches

VERSE 2

cause I can’t afford to let you go
I’m afraid to draw you near
cause I could get so lost in you that I might dissapear
and the words are on the tip of my tongue
but you wont hear a sound
cause once that fire gets going, there’s no way to slow it down
you better hide your matches, boy
you better hide your matches, boy yeah

CHORUS

[(F)]you better hide your matches, boy
oh yeah
you better hide your matches, boy
