[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
G D D
Maybe your granddad kept his dogtags hanging on the rearview
Dsus4 G Bm A Asus4 A
And maybe your mama drove you around in a Chevy Nova bright blue
Bm A G
Might've got your sixteen first date, yes at a slider in the drivethrough
Bm Bm7
Down Main Street, she was so cute, ended up just friends
G Bm A
If it sounds like it could've been you, or it's somewhere you might've been
G
Can I get an amen
[Chorus]
D
For a roman candle sky
F#m
A July praying for rain
Bm A
Yeah, sparks out the window, cigarette
G
With her silhouette caught in the flames
D
The keys to a fix-it-up dream
F#m
A love, and a first-crush heart
Bm
And to not knowing the secrets of life
A G
But damn sure knowing where it starts
D F#m Bm
Amen, amen, amen
A G D
Uhhuhhhhuhhh
[Verse 2]
G D D
And maybe you shot some bullet holes through tail of a windmill
Dsus4 G Bm A
Stuck a cross in some flowers by the road on the edge of a wheat field
Bm A G
And maybe that scar on your hands from a midnight parking lot disagreement
Bm Bm7
with one of your buddies so you squared off, then you made up
G Bm A G
With a tailgate cold beer apology just some memories that'll always be
[Chorus]
D
For a roman candle sky
F#m
A July praying for rain
Bm A
Yeah, sparks out the window, cigarette
G
With her silhouette caught in the flames
D
The keys to a fix-it-up dream
F#m
A love, and a first-crush heart
Bm
And to not knowing the secrets of life
A G
But damn sure knowing where it starts
D F#m Bm
Amen, amen, amen
A G D
Uhhuhhhhuhhh
[Bridge]
D F#m Bm
Amen, amen, amen
A G D
Uhhuhhhhuhhh
[Chorus]
D
For a roman candle sky
F#m
A July praying for rain
Bm A
Yeah, sparks out the window, cigarette
G
With her silhouette caught in the flames
D
The keys to a fix-it-up dream
F#m
A love, and a first-crush heart
Bm
And to not knowing the secrets of life
A G
But damn sure knowing where it starts
D F#m Bm
Amen, amen, amen
A G
Uhhuhhhhuhhh Amen
