[Verse]
D Dmaj7 G DGot a call from a friend about a friend
G D Em7 AWith some news no one ever wants to hear
D Dmaj7 G DIt hit me like a punch, it took my breath
G D Em7 AHe was just gettin' into his best years
Bm A G DYeah, somethin' like that'll shake you up
Em7 AWake you up
[Chorus]
D A Bm7 ASo I stopped off at a Texaco, bought a Slim Jim and a coke
G D Em7 AParked out by the water just to watch that river flow
D A Bm7 AGrabbed my guitar from the back seat, wrote a song just for me
G D Em7 AAnd I sung it for the blue sky and a couple live oak trees
Bm A G AI thought of home, grabbed my phone from my pocket
D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7And I called mama
[Verse 2]
D Dmaj7 G DIt rang a couple times, and she picked up
G D Em7 AI can always hear her smile when I call
D Dmaj7 G DI just called to tell you that I loved you
G D Em7 AI was missing you and dad and home, that's all
Bm A G DI got to really thinking this morning
Em7 AAbout what's important
[Chorus]
D A Bm7 ASo I stopped off at a Texaco, bought a Slim Jim and a coke
G D Em7 AParked out by the water just to watch that river flow
D A Bm7 AGrabbed my guitar from the back seat, wrote a song just for me
G D Em7 AAnd I sung it for the blue sky and a couple live oak trees
Bm A G AI thought of home, grabbed my phone from my pocket
DAnd I called mama

[Chorus]
D A Bm7 ATo stop off at a Texaco, buy Slim Jim and a coke
G D Em7 APark out by the water just to watch that river flow
D A Bm7 AGrab my guitar from the back seat, write a song just for me
G D Em7 AAnd I sing it for the blue sky and a couple live oak trees
Bm A G AI think of home, grab my phone from my pocket
Bm A G AInstead of sayin' tomorrow, I'm gonna
