[Verse]
G C G
Blink an eye at the yellow light
Em G D
Oh and you just might miss it all together
G C G
Just an old BP and a Dairy Queen
Em G D
Where the farmers meet to talk about the weather
[Chorus]
G
It's a tailgate town
Em
Just a needle on a map dot route
C
Hundred miles from the highway sound
G D
In the middle of nowhere
G
Where time came and went
Em
Flying by like a new Corvette
C
Oh, but we ain't left it yet
G D G C G G Em G D
We're still kicking around this tailgate town
G
Friday night
C G Em G
Every soul for miles is underneath the lights
D
Cheering all together
G C G
In '88, yeah we went to State
G Em G D
There wasn't any place that was any better
[Chorus]
G
Than this tailgate town
Em
Just a needle on a map dot route
C
Hundred miles from the highway sound
G D
In the middle of nowhere
G
Where time came and went
Em
Flying by like a new Corvette
C
Oh, but we ain't left it yet
G D G C G G Em G D
We're still kicking around this tailgate town

(Woah woah woah oh. Woah woah oh. Woah)

(Woah woah woah oh. Woah woah oh. Woah)
G
Church of Christ
C G
Chairs down in the aisle
Em G D
Where someone gets baptized or sent up to Heaven
G
And they will rest in peace
C G
Beneath that old oak tree
Em G D
Yeah and just like me, they'll be here forever
G C G Em G D
Woah woah woah oh. Woah woah oh. Woah

In the tailgate town
