Capo 1
[Intro]
F C Am G x2
F C
It was the summer before the real world started and,
Am G
The deal was we would get to go, if we
F C
Cleaned it up, and got it running,
Am G
Daddy's old Winnebago.
F C
Wing and a prayer down 65,
Am G
Five best friends on four bald tires,
F C
I can still see Billy smiling
G
When we finally made it.
F C
To Talladega, boys raised up,
Am G
Whiskey in your glass,
F C
here's to turning up, slowing down
Am G
and cars that go real fast,
F C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
Am G F
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
G
Sure would like to stay in,
F C Am G
Talladega.
F C
Like a storm, time rolls on,
Am G
You can't hit pause as we just did.
F C
Most days in life don't stand out,
Am G
But life's about those days that will, like,
F C
Rocking rando, getting rowdy,
Am G F
Shooting roman candles at the man in the moon,
C G
til the Alabama sun was breaking.
F C
Over Talladega, boys raised up,
Am G
Whiskey in your glass,
F C
here's to turning up, slowing down
Am G
and cars that go real fast,
F C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
Am G F
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
G
Sure would like to stay in,
F C Am G
Talladega.
F
When the winds go cold and it blows October,
F
I think about us shoulder to shoulder,
F
Like those cars my thoughts roll over and over and over,
G
In my mind
F C
Tonight i'm in Talladega, boys raised up,
Am G
Whiskey in your glass,
F C
here's to turning up, slowing down
Am G
and cars that go real fast,
F C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
Am G F
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
G
Sure would like to stay in,
F C Am G
Talladega.
F C Am G
Talladega,
F C Am G
Talladega,
