Tim McGraw – Something Like That
Play with capo on 1st fret
[Intro]
E D A C#m B (x2)
[Verse 1]
E D
It was Labor Day weekend I was seventeen,
I bought a coke and some gasoline,
E D A B
And I drove out to the county fair.
E D
When I saw her for the first time
A
She was standing there in the ticket line,
E D A B
And it all started right then and there.
A B
Ohh a sailor sky made a perfect sunset,
A/C# B/D#
And that's a day I'll never forget.
[Chorus]
E B
I had a bbq stain on my white t-shirt,
A B
She was killing me in that mini skirt.
E B C#m B A B
Skipping rocks on the river by the railroad tracks.
E B
She had a suntan line and red lipstick,
F#m G#m A B
I worked so hard for that first kiss,
C#m B A B E D A C#m B
And a heart don't forget something like that.
[Verse 2]
E D
It was five years later on a southbound plane,
A
I was headed down to New Orleans.
E D A B
To meet some friends of mine for Mardi Gras.
E D
When I heard a voice from the past,
A
Coming from a few rows back,
E D A B
And when I looked I couldn't believe just what I saw.
A B
She said "I bet you don't remember me."
A/C# B/D#
And I said "Only every other memory".
[Repeat chorus]
[Instrumental]
E D A C#m B (x2)
F#m E
Like an old photograph time can make a feeling fade,
A B
But the memory of the first love never fades away.
[Repeat chorus]
[Outro]
E D A C#m B
