We talk about your work how your boss is a jerk, we

toes and the run in your hose and God knows we're gonna
talk about your clothes.

Verse 2:
We talk about your dreams and we talk about your
schemes your high school team and your moisturizing

your heart, bout your brains and your smarts and your
medical charts and when you start.

(Intro): AAAAA
I was getting kinda tired
A
Of her endless chatter
A
Nothing I could say
A
Ever seemed to matter
D
So I took a little drive
D
Just to clear my head
AA
I saw a flashing neon up ahead
E
It looked like a place
E
To find some satisfaction
A[play first note only; then Rest]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
I paid the man at the door
A
And pushed my way to the bar
A
Shouted for a drink
A
Over a screaming guitar
DA drunk on a stool
D
Tried to mess with my head
A
But I didn't even listen
A
To a word he said
E
I knew somewhere
E
Amid all this distraction
A[repeat of first note...]
Was a little less talk
And a lot more action
[Chorus]
DA little less talk
D
If you please
AA lot more loving
A
Is what I need
E
Let's get on down
E
To the main attraction
A[first note...]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
Well she was fighting them off
A
At a corner table
A
She had a longneck bottle
A
She was peeling the label
D
The look on her face
D
It was perfectly clear
A
She said somebody please
A
Get me out of here
E
The look she shot me
E
Through the glass refraction
A[first note...]
Said a little less talk
And a lot more action
[Chorus]

[D]If I could in[A]vent a time[A7] ma[D]chine
[D]Baby we'd [A]both be [A7]seven[D]teen
[bm]Cruising in [A]my first car
[D]Acting like [G]movie stars on [A]Friday night
Do you remember those Friday nights
Chorus:
When we were a [D]rock ready to [D/F#]roll
And there was a [G]fire down in our [A]soul
When all the whole [D]world had to stand[f#m]still
Then turn around [G]us, 'cause that was the [A]deal
And oh how those [f#m]nights went flowing like [bm]wine
When I was all [em]yours and you were all [A]mine
And we were in [D]love, [A]yeah we were in [D]love
[D]I can still [A]see you [A7]when I [D]sleep
[D]And there is a [A]picture [A7]I still [D]keep
[bm]Of you with your [A]hair in the [A7]wind
[D]And me with that [G]crazy grin
Under a [A]summer sky
When dreams were too young to die
Repeat Chorus
[A]I know, [A7]I know it sounds crazy
But baby, you're [D]still the one
So [A]let's find a way to [f#m]bring back the days
When our [G]hearts were forever [A]young
Repeat Chorus
