[INTRO]
G D G D .
[VERSE ONE]
D I was a blacktop traveler
D An accident waiting to happen
G And thank God you and your Daddy pulled over and let that tailgate down
D Never would I have imagined
D G When you set me up in the back of that truck I'd fell in the hands of a new best friend
Em A Looking back at it now
[CHORUS]
G That was the best life I could ask for
G D Bruises and cuts and covered in mud and feet up on the dashboard
D Pickin' up girls, not a worry in the world
Em And you and me, made a good team
F#m G You took me in when I didn't have a prayer
G D That was the best life I could ask for
Em A G D Now that I'm looking back on those dog years
[VERSE TWO]
D Something about those little things
D Flathead cats on a riverbank
G Chasing white tail deer
G Stealin' your Dad's beer
G You'd pour a little on the ground for me
D And who could forget that first kiss
D Come to think of it, man, I'm sure I convinced her
G When she asked if you were next
D/F# Em A After I laid one on her cheek
[CHORUS]
G Yeah, that was the best life I could ask for
D Bruises and cuts and covered in mud and feet up on the dashboard
D Pickin' up girls, not a worry in the world
Em And you and me, made a good team
F#m G You took me in when I didn't have a prayer
G D That was the best life I could ask for
Em A G Now that I'm looking back on those dog years
G D A Mm hmm, hmm
[BRIDGE]
G D/F# And right now I know you're fightin' a lot of feelings
Starin' at me
Em F#m Knowin' this time when you scratch my head it'll probably be the last
G But if I could speak your language
D/F# Em All that I would Do is thank you for the best years
Em A Though they went by seven times too fast
[CHORUS]
G That was the best life I could ask for
G D Bruises and cuts and covered in mud and feet up on the dashboard
D Pickin' up girls, not a worry in the world
Em And you and me, made a good team
F#m G You took me in when I didn't have a prayer
G D/F# That was the best life I could ask for
G D/F# The best life I could ask for
G D/F# The best life I could ask for
Em A D Now that I'm looking back on those dog years
G All those dog years
