Capo 1st fret
 
 
 
[Intro]
D G Bm7 A
 
 
[Verse 1]
Bm7 AI stopped by old man Dolby's store
GFor cold ones on the way
Bm7 AWe bagged 'em up and dropped 'em down
GOut back, by our old place
Bm7It won't take long
AA simple man's on
GSomebody says your name
Em7 DAnd I can't help but wonder
GIf you're up there doing the same
 
 
[Chorus]
DSipping on a cold gold can
AReminiscing with some long-lost friends
Bm7Blowing smoke and joking
A GLaughing 'bout the hell we raised down here
DDo you ever get to kick it with the man?
ADid he tell you when he's coming back again?
Em D GDoes he sing along to Skynyrd on 11
A D GOn the tailgates of heaven?
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bm A GWell, almost everything in this old fire has burned before
Bm A GSome midnight memories, black beer cans and that bourbon bottle's yours
Bm7 A GIt's the same old boys, same old story stretching out the truth
Em7 D GWe all know something's missing and, brother, we all know it's you
 
 
[Chorus]
DSipping on a cold gold can
AReminiscing with some long-lost friends
Bm7Blowing smoke and joking
A GLaughing 'bout the hell we raised down here
DDo you ever get to kick it with the man?
ADid he tell you when he's coming back again?
Em D GDoes he sing along to Skynyrd on 11
A D GOn the tailgates of heaven?
Bm AOn the tailgates of heaven?
 
 
[Bridge]
Em D GRemember when we thought that nights like this would last forever?
Em DWell, I still believe they do
GThey just Go down somewhere better
 
 
[Chorus]
DSipping on a cold gold can
AReminiscing with some long-lost friends
Bm7Blowing smoke and joking
A GLaughing 'bout the hell we raised down here
DDo you ever get to kick it with the man?
ADid he tell you when he's coming back again?
Em D GDoes he sing along to Skynyrd on 11
EmYeah, tell Saint Pete
GTo save me a seat
A D GOn the tailgates of heaven
Bm7 AOn the tailgates of heaven
 
 
[Outro]
Bm AI stopped by old man Dolby's store
GFor cold ones on the way
Bm AWe bagged 'em up and dropped 'em down
GOut back, by our old place
