[Verse 1] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Lead Vocal] [Soft, Reflective, Intimate, Gentle Acoustic Guitar] Summer of eighty-nine, backseat and the radio loud Didn't know what we had till the whole town changed somehow [Raw Passionate Weathered Harmony Vocal] [Call and Response] Used to race that river road, windows down, nothing to lose Now I'm sitting on this porch with a memory I can't lose [Pre-Chorus] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Vocal] [Raw Passionate Weathered Vocal] [Trading Lines, Building] Where'd it go, that reckless kind of young Some nights I swear I can still feel it in my lungs Chasing something we couldn't name Chasing something we couldn't name [Chorus] [Duet, Both Voices Together] [Full Band, Soaring, Uplifting] Oh, those autumn nights, chasing down the sun Thought the good times couldn't ever come undone Now the leaves are turning, same as we became Older, wiser, still playing the same refrain Turn it up, let the memory play We were young and wild and we didn't know the way [Verse 2] [Raw Passionate Weathered Vocal Lead] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Vocal Answers] [Slightly Bigger Than Verse 1] Now my hands know different work, my voice has got some rust But that same old feeling hits me every time the streetlights bust We were kings of nothing much, just a town and a dusty road Didn't know that's all we'd need to carry this heavy load [Pre-Chorus 2] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Vocal] [Raw Passionate Weathered Vocal] [Trading Lines, Bigger Build, Passionate] Still got that spark somewhere, buried under all these years One more song about the ones who disappeared Every mile we drove back then was a mile we'd have to earn Now we're older men who finally understand the burn [Chorus] [Duet, Both Voices Together] [Biggest Energy, Wide Range] Oh, those autumn nights, chasing down the sun Thought the good times couldn't ever come undone Now the leaves are turning, same as we became Older, wiser, still playing the same refrain Turn it up, let the memory play We were young and wild and we didn't know the way [Bridge] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Vocal] [Raw Passionate Weathered Vocal] [Trading Lines, Instruments Pull Back, Raw and Close] You remember her name? Barely just her laugh Funny how the good ones [Duet, Unison, Quiet] are the ones that always last [Final Chorus] [Duet, Both Voices Together] [Stripped Down, Close Harmony, Light Guitar Only] Oh, those autumn nights, chasing down the sun Thought the good times couldn't ever come undone Now the leaves are turning, same as we became Older, wiser, still playing the same refrain [Full Band Rises] [Duet, Huge Unison Lift] Turn it up, let the memory play We were young and wild and we didn't know the way [Outro] [Gravel-Soaked Raspy Tenor Vocal] [Raw Passionate Weathered Vocal] [Trading Lines, Calm, Fading] Still got that radio Still got that road [Duet, Soft] Still chasing something we let go
