Verse
F A# C
I was headed into town that day, I had Beau in the back
F A# C
She came walkin' out of the station with an ice-cold six pack
F A# C
And I'd like to think it was me that made her walk on up
D C A#
But she bee-lined past the cab to the back of the truck
F A# C
And said, "Oh my god, what's his name? I could just eat him up"
F
"I said his name is Beau, he's ten years old
A# C
And I've had him since he was pup"
F
Turns out man's best friend is a hell of a wingman
A# C
I have him to thank
D C
For the number she put in my phone
A#
When she said, "Pick me up 8"
[Chorus]
A#
And, man, that summer, it was like no other
F C
Like I was on top of thе world
A#
This boy had it made with a first crank Chevrolet
F C
Good dog and a girl
A# F
Thеre wasn't a back road we didn't roll down
D C
Lookin' back now, there's no doubt
D C A#
Red dirt summer don't get much better than that
A# C F
'Cause I had it all, Katy in the front, Beau in the back
[Verse 2]
F A# C
Well, I saved up for over a year, hid every overtime dollar
F
Raced home early that day
A# C
To slip that ring on his camouflage collar
F
Well, she walked in and we walked up
A# C
And I dropped down to one knee
D C
Well, I just smiled and Beau went wild
A#
When she said yes to me
[Chorus]
A#
Man, that summer, it was like no other
F C
Like I was on top of thе world
A#
This boy had it made with a first crank Chevrolet

Good dog and a girl

Thеre wasn't a back road we didn't roll down

Lookin' back now, there's no doubt

I was headed into town that day, I had Beau in the back

And a lifetime full of memories came back to me
