  Yeah, you used to talk about

  Getting even further South 
Fmaj7 
  Somewhere where the summer lasted
 all year 'round

      Dm7 
But I wonder when you're drinking if
 you 
But I wonder when you're drinking if you 
G 
  Find yourself thinking about 
Cmaj7                      Am7 
  That boy from East Tennessee 
      Dm7 
And I know we both knew better 
      G 
But we still said forever 
       Cmaj7 
And that was seven summers 
   Am7 
Of Coke and Southern Comfort 
       Dm7                       
Were we dumb or just younger, who
   G 
 knows?

Back then, you used to love the river
 
Back then, you used to love the river 
    Am7                       Dm7 
And sippin' on a sixer with me 
  
Does it ever make you sad to know 
G 
That was seven summers ago?
[Post-Refrain]
Cmaj7             Fmaj7 
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Strophe]
Cmaj7 
  Yeah, I bet your daddy's so proud 
Cmaj7 
  Of how his little girl turned out 
Fmaj7 
  Think she dodged a bullet 
     Fmaj7 
Of a good old boy like me 
               Cmaj7 
'Cause I still,  go drinkin', same
 friends on Friday 
'Cause I still,  go drinkin', same friends on Friday 
Cmaj7 
Bought a few acres, couple roads off
 the highway

Guess you never saw things my way
 anyway
