[Verse 1] G Well the sun went down, all storefronts shut D They roll the sidewalks up around here Em It's just kids and the cops out after 7 o'clock C So you better had already bought your beer
G You cut your headlights off trying to not get caught D She's out the window and across the yard Em She slid it into the seat, slow rolled it down the street C 'Til you parked it and the stereo starts And they say [Chorus 1] G Nothing good ever happens after midnight D Maybe midnight's just misunderstood Em Cause if nothing good ever happens after midnight C Why does it always feel so damn good G D Wrapped up so tight with me, no light Em C All night, it was alright, alright [Verse 2] G You go as fast as you can, go as far as you want D With nobody out to slow you down Em She was your rearview queen, you were her street king C While everybody was asleep in the town G You watch the red lights blink 'til the horizon's pink D All while her daddy thinks she's still in her bed Em But when you're young and dumb
C The only rule of thumb was do the opposite of everything They said, and they said [Chorus 2] G Nothing good ever happens after midnight D Maybe midnight's just misunderstood Em Cause if nothing good ever happens after midnight C Why does it always feel so damn good G D Wrapped up so tight, your own paradise Em C And the dashboard lights, alright, alright [Chorus 1] G They say nothing good ever happens after midnight D Maybe midnight's just misunderstood Em Cause if nothing good ever happens after midnight C Why did it always feel so damn good G D Wrapped up so tight with me, no light Em C All night, it was alright, alright
