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