verse
[G]Seventeen, the [C]only way I had a car
Is [F]after I dropped my
Momma off where she [C]needed to go
[G] Four bald tires
With the [C]ceiling falling and the windows stuck
But the [F]only thing I cared about was the [C]radio
[C]We turned it on, turned it up to 10
[C]And everybody would jump on in
Chorus
[G]Ridin down the highway
[B] [C] Who wants to be the DJ
[E] [F]I’ll find a spot on the side of the road
[C]You find something on the radio
[G]Like a real, real good song
We'[B]We'll[C]ll know it when it comes on
Didn'[E]Didn't [F]have no money no place to go
[C]All we needed was a radio
instrumental

verse
I[G]I grabbed my girl
We [C]looked for somewhere to watch the stars
A [F]perfect place to put it park and [C]take it slow
She[G]She sang along
To [C]even the ones that she barely knew
Still [F]sounded good, a little louder too
But we [C]didn’t care
[C]I looked at her, she looked at me
[C]I’ll never forget that melody
