[Verse 1]
DA
I'm doin' seventy-two in a sixty-five,
BmG
On I-24 in a four-wheel drive
AG
Got a ten o'clock on Eighteenth Avenue
DA
And there's a thirty percent chance of rain all week
BmG
And the high today is gonna be eighty-three
DAG
They're playing Highway 101 on 102.5
G
An eighteen wheeler by my side
[Chorus]
DABm
Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
GD
Some as slow as Christmas coming,
A
Some like the speed of sound,
GD
And we all wonder, what they mean,
ABm
The highs, the lows, the in between’s,
GDA
Why most of them mean absolutely nothing
GDABm
But some of them mean everything
[Verse 2]
GDA
I met her at 9:15 on my buddy's back porch
BmG
Shootin' bottle rockets on July fourth
DAG
We were both nineteen and she was a perfect 10,
DA
Then three years later 'neath a million stars,
BmG
In my F-150 on her granddad's farm,
DAG
I slipped a half-carat diamond on the third finger, of her left hand
G
And asked to be her one and only man
[Chorus]
DABm
Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
GD
Some as slow as Christmas coming,
A
Some like the speed of sound,
GD
And we all wonder, what they mean,
ABm
The highs, the lows, the in between’s,
GDA
Why most of them mean absolutely nothing
G
But some of them mean everything
[Solo]
| ABm | G | A |
[Bridge]
EmD
John 3:16, the Fab four,
A
The fifty-yard line, the thirteenth floor,
EmBm
9/11, the dirty dozen,
G
We're all waiting on the Second Coming
[Chorus]
DABm
Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
GD
Some as slow as Christmas coming,
A
Some like the speed of sound,
GD
And we all wonder, what they mean,
ABm
The highs, the lows, the in between’s,
GDA
Why most of them mean absolutely nothing
GDA
Oh, most of them mean absolutely nothing,
DBm
But some of them mean everything
GDAG
Oh numbers-er-er-erS
[Outro]
DA
I'm doin' seventy-two in a sixty-five,
