[Intro]
A E F#m D
[Verse 1]
A E F#m D
The night is gettin' late, the crowd's headed home
A E F#m D
It's just you and me girl on the lake shore
A E F#m D
I know I just met you but I can't let you go
A E F#m D
Forget about your friends, baby, I'll drive you home (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
A E F#m D
I'll set you on the tailgate, we'll take it nice and slow
A E F#m D
I know it ain't your style, but I won't tell a soul, no
[Pre-Chorus]
E F#m D
I know you gotta wake up for that nine to five
E F#m
But what's the point of livin', girl
D
If you don't feel alive?
[Chorus]
A E
We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
F#m D
Pour another drink, turn up that song
A E
'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights
F#m D
Midnight dancin' in the headlights
A E F#m D
Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake
A E F#m
If you're gettin' tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed
D A
But we can sleep when we're dead
[Verse 3]
A E F#m D
Put your pretty arms around me, now get in nice and close
A E F#m D
Whisper in my ear what you'd like to know
A E F#m D
Now you can tell me 'bout your family, or tell me 'bout your day
A E F#m D
Or our lips can Do the talking, listen baby, what Do you say?
[Pre-Chorus]
E F#m D
I know it's kinda crazy for a Tuesday night
E F#m D
But sometimes a good thing don't need time
[Chorus]
A E
We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
F#m D
Pour another drink, turn up that song
A E
'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights
F#m D
Midnight dancin' in the headlights
A E F#m D
Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake
A E F#m
If you're gettin' tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed
D A
But we can sleep when we're dead
[Bridge]
E F#m D
With a smile she pulled me to water
E F#m D
Them southern girls, man, they just don't get any hotter
E F#m
I said "No girl, got on my good jeans"
D
She looked at me boy like "What Do you mean?"
[Chorus]
A E
We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
F#m D
Jump on me, let's have a little fun
A E
Small town lovers, hot summer nights
F#m D
Out here swimmin' in the moonlight
A E F#m D
Some day we might regret leavin' this love out by the lake
A E F#m D
But no matter what you do, don't forget what we said
A E, F#m, D
We can sleep when we're dead
A E F#m D
We can sleep when we're dead, aww yeah
A
We can sleep when we're dead
