[Verse 1]
G                                                          C  D
Me and Britney used to sit on the front porch drinking lemonade
G
Talking about things no one else was ever supposed to hear
                 C  D
In the summer shade
G
She said she was gonna be a movie star
                      C  D
And I said she was crazy
G
Catching dreams and fireflies in a jar
                 C  D
Just me and Britney


[Chorus]
G  D
Oh, oh
C                                    D
We were babies, we were beautiful and free
G  D
Oh, oh
C                                   D
There was nothing that was out of reach
N.C.
For me and Britney

[Verse 2]
G                                     D              G   C   D
She never made it to Hollywood but she made it to Memphis
G                       C          D             G    C   D
And this little old town just hasn’t been the same since
G                     D   G                          G   C   D
That boy she went ran off with, well, I thought he was crazy
G                                                           C   D
Maybe I was just jealous that he'd come between me and Britney


[Chorus]
G  D
Oh, oh
C                             D
She was in love, she was beautiful and free
G  D
Oh, oh
C                            D
She was always so much braver than me


[Bridge]
Em                         C
When the phone rang in the middle of the night
G                D
Before she said a word I knew it was her
Em                                   C           G                D*
She said I’m sorry for waking you up but I didn’t know who else to call
                 C*
Or where else to go


[Verse 3]
G
Me and Britney sat down on the front porch
                              C      D
Talking about love and how it changes things
G                    C                 D             G             C   D
Changes people and it changes names and everything but me and Britney


[Chorus]
G  D
Oh, oh
C                                  D
We’re not as young, but we’re still beautiful and free
G  D
Oh, oh
C                            D
Even when we’re old, we’re still going to be


[Outro]
G                                                     C  D
Me and Britney sitting on the front porch drinking lemonade
G                                        C    G
Talking about things no one else was ever gonna hear
                 C*  G*
In the summer shade
