INTRO
(M Vox brth) (G warm)
Shhh… yeah…
VERSE 1
(M Vox smlft)
Cornfield dust kickin’ up behind my Ford,
(M Vox smlft)
Royce Road hummin’ like it’s hearin’ somethin’ more.
(M Vox smlft)
Saw you leanin’ on that fence, red hair fallin’ low,
(M Vox smlft)
Green eyes hittin’ me harder than a lightning show.
(M Vox lift)
I pulled up slow just to hear you laugh,
(M Vox lift)
Grabbed that rope in the bed, swung it fast, made it crack.
(M Vox smlft)
You tried to hide that smile, but girl, I caught the glow—
(M Vox smlft)
You were watchin’ every move like you didn’t want me to know.
PRE-CHORUS
(M Vox lift)
Every move I made, you were pullin’ at the flame,
(M Vox lift)
Tryin’ not to stare, but you whispered out my name.
(M Vox build)
Two young hearts racin’, neither one slowin’ down—
(M Vox build)
Turnin’ every backroad night into a battleground.
HOOK
(M Vox big)
Girl, on Royce Road you were burnin’ through my mind,
(M Vox big)
Red-hair glowin’ in the dark, body pressed against mine.
(M Vox run)
You were trouble in them jeans, and you knew just what you’d do,
(M Vox big)
Every stare you threw my way had me comin’ after you.
(M Vox belt)
Yeah, we were wild, we were heat, we were losin’ control…
(M Vox belt)
Burnin’ up the dark on Royce Road.
VERSE 2
(M Vox smlft)
Hit the lot at midnight, rain comin’ down hard,
(M Vox smlft)
You were drippin’ from that hose, white tee stickin’ to your heart.
(M Vox lift)
Laughin’ ’til you screamed when I picked that fight,
(M Vox smlft)
Water runnin’ down your skin in the glow of tailgate light.
(M Vox lift)
Then your momma’s orange Chevy rolled in slow,
(M Vox smlft)
Four-door headlights cuttin’ through the storm’s blue glow.
(M Vox lift)
You grabbed my hand, whispered “run,” like we were breakin’ a law,
(M Vox smlft)
But girl, you knew damn well I’d follow anywhere you saw.
PRE-CHORUS (REPEAT)
(M Vox lift)
Every move I made, you were pullin’ at the flame,
(M Vox lift)
Tryin’ not to stare, but you whispered out my name.
(M Vox build)
Two young hearts racin’, neither one slowin’ down—
(M Vox build)
Turnin’ every backroad night into a battleground.
BRIDGE
(M Vox big)
Thunder hit the sky when you dared me to let go,
(M Vox big)
Boots on that slick old bridge, lightning dancin’ below.
(M Vox smlft)
I stripped down, took a breath, heard you whisper “don’t…”
(M Vox big)
Then I dove into the dark just to prove you never owned
(M Vox belt)
A boy too wild to tame, but girl you had my soul—
(M Vox lift)
Every time I came up drippin’, you were losin’ control.
FINAL HOOK
(M Vox big)
Girl, on Royce Road you were burnin’ through my mind,
(M Vox big)
Red-hair glowin’ in the dark, body pressed against mine.
(M Vox run) (Kick deep)
You were trouble in them jeans, and you knew just what you’d do,
(M Vox big)
Every stare you threw my way had me comin’ after you.
(M Vox belt)
Yeah, we were wild, we were heat, we were losin’ control…
(M Vox belt)
Burnin’ up the dark on Royce Road.
