[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Yeah, you used to talk about
Cmaj7 Getting even further South
Fmaj7 Somewhere where the summer lasted all year 'round
Cmaj7Probably got a big ol' diamond on your hand right now
Cmaj7Maybe a baby or a couple by now
Fmaj7Long driveway to a big white house
[Chorus]
Dm7But I wonder when you're drinking if you
G Find yourself thinking about
Cmaj7 Am7 That boy from East Tennessee
Dm7And I know we both knew better
GBut we still said forever
Cmaj7And that was seven summers
Am7Of Coke and Southern Comfort
Dm7 GWere we dumb or just younger, who knows?
Cmaj7Back then, you used to love the river
Am7 Dm7And sippin' on a sixer with me
Does it ever make you sad to know
GThat was seven summers ago?
[Post-Chorus]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Yeah, I bet your daddy's so proud
Cmaj7 Of how his little girl turned out
Fmaj7 Think she dodged a bullet
Fmaj7Of a good old boy like me
Cmaj7'Cause I still, Go drinkin', same friends on Friday
Cmaj7Bought a few acres, couple roads off the highway
Fmaj7Guess you never saw things my way anyway
[Chorus]
Dm7But I wonder when you're drinking if you
G Find yourself thinking about
Cmaj7 Am7 That boy from East Tennessee
Dm7And I know we both knew better
GBut we still said forever
Cmaj7And that was seven summers
Am7Of Coke and Southern Comfort
Dm7 GWere we dumb or just younger, who knows?
Cmaj7Back then, you used to love the river
Am7 Dm7And sippin' on a sixer with me
Does it ever make you sad to know
GThat was seven summers ago?
[Post-Chorus]
Cmaj7Ooh
Fmaj7Seven summers ago (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Cmaj7 Fmaj7Seven summers ago (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
Dm7But I wonder when you're drinking if you
G Find yourself thinking about
Cmaj7 Am7 That boy from East Tennessee
Dm7And I know we both knew better
GBut we still said forever
Cmaj7And that was seven summers
Am7Of Coke and Southern Comfort
Dm7 GWere we dumb or just younger, who knows?
Cmaj7Back then, you used to love the river
Am7 Dm7And sippin' on a sixer with me
Does it ever make you sad to know
GThat was seven summers ago?
