Verse
D# G# A#
I was headed into town that day, I had Beau in the back
D# G# A#
She came walkin' out of the station with an ice-cold six pack
D# G# A#
And I'd like to think it was me that made her walk on up
C A# G#
But she bee-lined past the cab to the back of the truck
D# G# A#
And said, "Oh my god, what's his name? I could just eat him up"
D#
"I said his name is Beau, he's ten years old
G# A#
And I've had him since he was pup"
D#
Turns out man's best friend is a hell of a wingman
G# A#
I have him to thank
C A#
For the number she put in my phone
G#
When she said, "Pick me up 8"
[Chorus]
G#
And, man, that summer, it was like no other
D# A#
Like I was on top of thе world
G#
This boy had it made with a first crank Chevrolet
D# A#
Good dog and a girl
G# D#
Thеre wasn't a back road we didn't roll down
C A#
Lookin' back now, there's no doubt
C A# G#
Red dirt summer don't get much better than that
G# A# D#
'Cause I had it all, Katy in the front, Beau in the back
[Verse 2]
D# G# A#
Well, I saved up for over a year, hid every overtime dollar
D#
Raced home early that day
G# A#
To slip that ring on his camouflage collar
D#
Well, she walked in and we walked up
G# A#
And I dropped down to one knee
C A#
Well, I just smiled and Beau went wild
G#
When she said yes to me
[Chorus]
G#
Man, that summer, it was like no other
D# A#
Like I was on top of thе world
G#
This boy had it made with a first crank Chevrolet
D# A#
Good dog and a girl
G# D#
Thеre wasn't a back road we didn't roll down
C A#
Lookin' back now, there's no doubt
C A# G#
Red dirt summer don't get much better than that
G# A# D#
'Cause I had it all, Katy in the front, Beau in the back
[Bridge]
A# G#
But, man, that love got stronger day by day
A# Fm
But them old dogs don't get younger as time fades
G#
[Verse 3]
D# G# A#
I was headed into town that day, I had Beau in the back
D# G# A#
We both knew it was time, don't get much harder than that
D# G# A#
Well, I cried just like a baby when he licked me on the cheek
Cm A# G#
And a lifetime full of memories came back to me
[Chorus]
G#
Like That Summer was like no other
D# A#
Like I was on top of thе world
G#
This boy had it made with a first crank Chevrolet
D# A#
Good dog and a girl
G# D#
Thеre wasn't a back road we didn't roll down
C A#
Lookin' back now, there's no doubt
C A# G#
Red dirt summer don't get much better than that
G# A# D#
'Cause I had it all, Katy in the front, Beau in the back
