This song is from the album BRINGING BACK THE SUNSHINE(2014) released on September 30, 2014.
What a beautiful song and a beautiful story. I loved the way that the as the song progressed, the story progressed along with it. The lyrics were really enjoyable and the harmonies killed it. I loved the effect that the harmonies brought into the song. The whole atmosphere of the song changed and the song took onto another level. This is definitely one of the best song lyrics by Blake.

[INTRO] Eb Gm Ab Gm Fm x2
[VERSE]
          Eb  Gm         Ab        Gm            Fm
Had to steal, daddy's car, park it far from her house
                              Bb
And throwing rocks at her window til she's sneaking out
Eb          Gm               Ab         Gm
How to get a college kid to get you good stuff
Fm                         Bb
Mix a perfect drink in a Sonic cup
       Eb         Gm      Ab
How to lean back, fake a yawn
              Gm                Fm
Stretch your arm round her shoulder  
                        Bb
Pull her closer til she let you lean in for a kiss
Eb             Gm            Ab     Gm
How to turn a twenty into Saturday night
Fm                             Bb              Cm
How to make her momma let you have her til midnight
Cm          Bb                    Eb     Ab
How not to let her know she's got you caught

[CHORUS]
Eb              Gm              Ab
These are the things that you learn
            Bb
When your heart just wants to burn, burn
Eb               Gm           Ab
These are the steps that you take
              Bb
When you're only thinking one thing
Cm                                   Bb
And you don't know nothing bout a promise and forever
Ab                                    Gm
All you know is nothing's better than being together
         Fm                           Bb         Eb
And the only thing you want in the world, is a girl

[VERSE]
      Eb    Gm          Ab            Gm          Fm
How to act like you're listening to her about her day
Fm                             Bb
When she's talking and she's blocking the game
Eb                Gm                      Ab        Gm
How to shut your mouth when it's that time of the month
Fm                                     Bb
Knowing when she's mad and when she's really just drunk
        Eb     Gm           Ab           Gm
And you swear that you'll change all our ways
        Dm                           Bb
Just to get her to believe you and move into your man cave
Eb             Gm          Ab          Gm
How to hide a ring in your pocket for weeks
Fm                              Bb                Cm
How to say them four words and make em sound so sweet
Cm           Bb              Eb    Ab
That she'd never ever say no, no no no

[CHORUS]
Eb              Gm              Ab
These are the things that you learn
            Bb
When your heart just wants to burn, burn
Eb               Gm           Ab
These are the steps that you take
              Bb
When you're only thinking one thing
Cm                                   Bb
And you don't know nothing bout a promise and forever
Ab                                    Gm
All you know is nothing's better than being together
         Fm                           Bb         Eb
And the only thing you want in the world, is a girl

[INSTRUMENTAL] Eb Gm Ab Gm Fm x2

[BRIDGE]
Cm                          Bb
Oh, you won't believe the way she's got you acting
Ab                               Gm
She'll talk you into things you never thought would happen
           Fm           Ab            Bb          Eb
When the only thing you want in the world, is a girl
