[Verse 1]
A                             E
Remember when we first met?
F#m
You said light my cigarette
D
So I lied to my mom and dad
E                                                       A
And jumped the fence and I ran
E
But we couldn’t go very far
F#m
Cause you locked your keys in your car
D
So you sat and stared at my lips
E                                                       A
And I could already feel your kiss

[Chorus]
A
Long nights, daydreams
E                                                       F#m
Sugar and smoke rings, I’ve been a fool
D                                     E                                     A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you
A
Headlights, on me
E                                     F#m
Racing to 60, I’ve been a fool
D                                     E
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like
A
Blue eyes, black jeans
E                                                       F#m
Lighters and candy, I’ve been a fool
D                                     E                   A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you

[Verse 2]
A                                                       E
Remember when you taught me fate
F#m
Said it all be worth the wait
D
Like that night in the back of the cab
E                                                       A
When your fingers walked in my hand
E
Next day, nothing on my phone
F#m
But I can still smell you on my clothes
D
Always hoping things would change
E A
But we went right back to your games

[Chorus]
A
Long nights, daydreams
E                                                       F#m
Sugar and smoke rings, I’ve been a fool
D                                     E                                     A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you
A
Headlights, on me
E                                     F#m
Racing to 60, I’ve been a fool
D                                                       E
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like
A
Blue eyes, black jeans
E                                     F#m
Lighters and candy, I’ve been a fool
D E A
But strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you

[Bridge]
A                                     E
And even if I run away
F#m
And give my heart a holiday
D                                     E                                                       A
Still strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you
A                                                       E
You always leave me wanting more
F#m
I can’t shake my hunger for
D                                     E                                     A
Strawberries and cigarettes always taste like you
E                                                       A
Yeah, they always taste like you
A
Long nights, daydreams
E
With that sugar and smoke rings

Headlights, on me

Racing to 60, I’ve been a fool
