Dmaj7......C#m7.Bm7...........................C#m7.Dmaj7.....C#m7....Bm7...C#m7
Loosen up, uh huh, that’s what I tell myself in these situations, yeah
.....Dmaj7......C#m7.Bm7.................C#m7......D#m7...........C#m7..Bm7...C#m7
It’s too sweet, like candy, but it’s the kind that rots your teeth

Now I remember that sundress and your flowered sweater in the cold
.........Dmaj7....C#m7.Bm7..............C#m7..Dmaj7..C#m7..Bm7
But when I went inside you went with him
......E..................F#m.....................E......................F#m
And I told myself it was too much heaven just to see you walking into a 7-11

And I’ll let you believe what you want to believe but it was never up for grabs to go

Sometimes I think that you’re the one
.........Dmaj7..C#m7.....Bm7....C#m7
And then I elope with my bike
....Dmaj7.......C#m7...Bm7
And you never really knew
....Dmaj7.............C#m7..Bm7
And friends are the hardest things
....Dmaj7............C#m7....Bm7
But what’s a non-believer to do
...........Dmaj7...........C#m7..Bm7
Except for sit and watch it go away
......E..................F#m.....................E......................F#m
And I told myself it was too much heaven just to see you walking into a 7-11

Loosen up, uh huh (Erik and Angie)
Capo 1
I voice G6 like 3-5-5-4-3-0
G6...........Dmaj7
Let's take a holiday
..G6.........Dmaj7
A getaway to cool our heads
G6..................Dmaj7
Drive real fast and not turn back
...G6............Dmaj7
Forget the awful things we said
Bm7...C9
We'll climb the treetops
G6........Dmaj7
A perfect holiday
...G6..............Dmaj7
We need at least a month or two
...G6.................Dmaj7
To drive real far and sort things out
..G6............Dmaj7
Remember what I saw in you
Bm7...C9
We'll climb the treetops
Bm7...C9
We'll count the stars
Dmaj7.............Em7
Countless times I wished you gone
....F#m11...........G6............Dmaj7
But didn't count on wishes coming true
Dmaj7......Em7..............F#m11
I drove to other towns with other men
.....G6
but none of them was you
Dmaj7......Em7
I dream of other loves
....F#m11.................G6............Dmaj7
But those are dreams from which I always wake
Dmaj7..........Em7
It's dark, the stars are out
......F#m11.............G6
Let's drive the longest road there is to take
G6........Dmaj7
A holiday
G6.................Dmaj7
Go somewhere we've never been
G6..................Dmaj7
Drive real fast and drive real far
G6...................Dmaj7
Kiss and make things right again
(repeat prechorus & chorus, end on Dmaj7)
