C G D
It's about fifteen hundred miles to California
C G D
They'll get there Friday if they leave tonight
C G D
She sneaks out at three thirty in the morning
C G D
Leaves a note so she won't see her daddy cry
C G D x2
C G D
He cuts the engine when he coasts in the driveway
C G D
She slides in and gives him one kiss for the road
C G D
No friends and no family, no job out there waiting
C G D
The whole town will call them crazy but they gotta go
C G D
'Cause when you're young and in love, yeah
C G D
You might do sgome things that don't seem all that smart
C G D C G
'Cause there ain't no greater distance than the eighteen inches from your
D
Head to your heart
C G D x2
C G D
They can barely make rent on a rundown apartment
C G D
She's waiting tables and he's a valet
C G D
They're behind on the bills and the car's barely running
C G D
But he buys a ring with the tips that he's saved
C G D
'Cause when you're young and in love, yeah
C G D
You might do sgome things that don't seem all that smart
C G D C G
'Cause there ain't no greater distance than the eighteen inches from your
D
Head to your heart
C G D
Em Bm C G D
Last thing they need is another mouth to feed, but they won't call
Em Bm C G D
Just kids themselves but that's all to change in nine more months
C G D
She wakes him up at three thirty in the morning
C G D
Ready or not their new life's gonna start
C G D
Seven pounds and eighteen inches
C G D
The doctor lays that new baby's head right on her heart
C G D
C G D
When you're young and in love, yeah
C G D
You might do some things that don't seem all that smart
C G D
But thank God for those eighteen inches
C G D
The distance it is from your head to your heart
C G D x4
End on C
