Intro - F - C - Dm - Bb - F - C - Bb - F - Bb 
 
 
(verse 1) 
Dm         Bb 
Trans-Am, T-tops down, 
F                C 
Red light in my home town, 
Dm                Bb 
Nothin to do just cruisin around, 
        F                 C 
With a couple of my best friends, so, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
   Dm                Bb 
He pulls up in this blue Mustang, 
F                C 
Finest thing we ever seen, 
     Bb                 F 
All cowboy up'd, in his hat and jeans, 
 Bb                            C 
Only one thing to do when he pulled away, 

        F                  C 
We went flyin down the interstate, 
 Dm            Bb 
Chasin those Texas plates, 
F              C 
Seventeen we couldn't wait, 
   Gm            Dm         Bb 
To see where the road might lead, 
F                  C 
Not a care in the whole wide world, 
Dm              Bb 
Just three Oklahoma girls, 
Gm         Dm                   Bb 
Who want a piece of the Lonestar state, 
C                    F 
Chasin those Texas plates,  
 
 
 
 
(verse 3) 
Blue letters red cowboy fan, 
Texas flag on top of them, 
He looked like the kinda man, 
You can take home to mama, 
 
(verse 3) 
Went slow for a couple miles, 
Flashin lights and trail of smiles, 
Then he stepped on the gas and he waved goodbye, 
He knew we couldn't catch up but we had to try, 
 
 
(chorus) 
        F                  C 
We went flyin down the interstate, 
 Dm            Bb 
Chasin those Texas plates, 
F              C 
Seventeen we couldn't wait, 
   Gm            Dm         Bb 
To see where the road might lead, 
F                  C 
Not a care in the whole wide world, 
Dm              Bb 
Just three Oklahoma girls, 
Gm         Dm                   Bb 
Who want a piece of the Lonestar state, 
C                    F 
Chasin those Texas plates, 
 
 
 
(lead chords - F - C - Dm - Bb - F - C - Dm)  
 
 
 
(bridge) 
Bb 
I still love to remember, 
Dm   
That Trans-Am and that summer, 
G#                    C 
And just how good it felt, 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
        F                  C 
We went flyin down the interstate, 
 Dm            Bb 
Chasin those Texas plates, 
F              C 
Seventeen we couldn't wait, 
   G#m            Dm         Bb 
To see where the road might lead, 
F                  C 
Not a care in the whole wide world, 
Dm              Bb 
Just three Oklahoma girls, 
Gm         Dm                    Bb 
Who want a piece of the Lonestar state, 
C                    F 
Chasin those Texas plates,
