G D Em D G D
 
Chorus
G D
There was a time when I would drive to the county line in daddy's truck
Em
Picking up girls with the tags expired
 
To a Dairy Queen date
D
Doin' under 35 jammin' big 98
G
With your hair in the wind feet on the dash
D Em
A box of night crawlers and two poles in the back of a single cab
D
Just fishin' for love through the radio jam
G D
So let the radio jam
 
Em D
So let the radio jam
 
Verse
G
Man we thought we were something with that new Justin Moore bumpin
D
And buzzing off of some beers had like two bud lights in my stomach
Em
Blowin smoke but not inhalin,
 
We were just tryna be cool
D
Tryna impress the cheerleaders at our old high school
G
We was doing burn outs getting tickets and the cops knew our first names
D
Game warden gave us tickets for fishing down at Cheatham Dam
Em
No sense and no license
 
Just a couple gallons of gas
D
And a love for summer time and that new hot (hot) track

Verse
G
If I could talk to all the artists who came through my muddy speakers
D Em
While I was tailgating in a field with both of my fists bleeding cause I just got in a fight
 
And I thought I was gonna be in trouble
D
When I walked in daddy's house we looked at me and then he chuckled
G
He said "what's he look like?"
 
I said "I don't know cause my adrenaline"

Plus it was just me verses like 3 or 4 of them

But I didn't let them get me

I slammed one on his head the Timmy chased the other guys with that wooden ball bat
