INTRO 
 
 
            D 
I'd hook my wagon to my trike and I'd head across the yard, 
                           C           D 
In my big sand box where I worked real hard. 
 
Playin' all day with my little toy trucks, 
                       C            D 
Back hoes, bulldozers, earth movin' stuff. 
         A 
That was my whole life when I was a kid, 
    G 
But when I grew up I guess I never really did. 
 
 
       D 
I like big boy toys, motors and lights. 
                         A 
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive. 
D                      G 
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm, 
    E                              A 
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard. 
G 
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy, 
D                      A       D      D    Bm  D 
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys. 
 
 
    D 
Now sometimes baby, you just can't understand, 
                            C            D 
The mud on my boots and the grease on my hands. 
 
I try to explain how it makes me feel, 
                        C            D 
The awesome power of my hands on the wheel. 
     A 
If I can't find the words to set things right, 
  G 
I just scoot over and I let my baby drive. 
 
 
          D 
She likes big boy toys, motors and lights. 
                         A 
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive. 
D                      G 
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm, 
    E                              A 
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard. 
G  
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy, 
D                      A       D 
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys. 
 
 
    G 
Its boats and cars, tractors and trucks, 
A                                                      Am 
Gasoline and diesel fuel are runnin' through my blood. 
 
 
       D 
I like big boy toys, motors and lights. 
                         A 
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive. 
D                      G 
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm, 
    E                              A 
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard. 
G               
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy, 
D                      A       D 
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys. 
                       A       D      D   Bm D  D   Bm  A  D 
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys.
