(No Capo)

Intro.:  |(D) |(D) |(G)(A)(Bm) / |2/4(G)(A)|4/4(D) |

(D) Cover band on a Flora-Bama deck, a thousand sun-burned souls
(Dmaj7) Rum-runners and cold Bud Light, a little (G)Friday night summertime rock and roll
(D) Packed in tight, they were singin' along, I was hanging on the edge of the crowd
When you (Dmaj7)spilled your beer down the back of my shirt
You (G)had me when I (F#m) turned a-(Em)round (A)

(Chorus)
(G)Guitars (A)on the (D)Gulf breeze, (G)smoke (A)rings 'round the (D)neon
(G)Moonlight (A)in your (Bm)blue eyes, 'neath that (Em)Georgia (A)hat that you (D)had on
(G)Just one (A)night to (D)hold you, no, that (G)ain't what (A)I call (Bm)fair
But the (G)memor-(A)ies burn (D)in my (D/F#)mind like (G)those light-(A)ers in the (D)air
(G) Lighters (A)in the (D)air

(D) That one look led to a walk on the beach and more kisses than I could count
The (Dmaj7)best kind of wild and down-home smile, I've (G/D)ever had these arms around
(D) The amps were screamin' and the people were too while we were slow dancing on our bare feet
(Dmaj7) Ain't it funny how we missed it all and (G)still didn't (F#m)miss a thing? (Em) (A)

(Chorus)
(G)Guitars (A)on the (D)Gulf breeze, (G)smoke (A)rings 'round the (D)neon
(G)Moonlight (A)in your (Bm)blue eyes, 'neath that (Em)Georgia (A)hat that you (D)had on
(G)Just one (A)night to (D)hold you, no, that (G)ain't what (A)I call (Bm)fair
But the (G)memor-(A)ies burn (D)in my (D/F#)mind like (G)those light-(A)ers in the (D)air

(Bridge)
(Em) The thought of you won't let me go, it's been (G) holding on for years
(Em) It don't take much to take me back (A)everytime I hear ---

(Chorus)
(G)Guitars (A)on the (D)Gulf breeze, (G)smoke (A)rings 'round the (D)neon
(G)Moonlight (A)in your (Bm)blue eyes, 'neath that (Em)Georgia (A)hat that you (D)had on
(G)Just one (A)night to (D)hold you, no, that (G)ain't what (A)I call (Bm)fair
But the (G)memor-(A)ies burn (D)in my (D/F#)mind like (G)those light-(A)ers in the (D)air

Raise your (G) lighters (A)in the (D)air

Outro.:  |(G)(A)(Bm) / |(G)(A)(D) / | x repeat to fade
