Intro: F C Am G x2

   F                          C
It was the summer before the real world started and,
   Am                  G         
The deal was we would get to go, if we
  F                  C
Cleaned it up, and got it running,
  Am                    G
Daddy's old Winnebago.

   F                          C
Wing and a prayer down 65,
 Am                    G
Five best friends on four bald tires,
   F                          C
I can still see Billy smiling
 Am                    G
When we finally made it.

   F                          C
To Talladega, boys raised up,
 Am                    G
Whiskey in your glass, here's to turning up,
  F                          C
Slowing down and cars that go real fast,
 Am                    G
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
  F                          C
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
 Am                    G
Sure would like to stay in, Talladega.

    F                   C
Like a storm, time rolls on,
    F                        F   
You can't hit pause as we just did.
    C                        F
Most days in life don't stand out,
      F                          C
But life's about those days that will, like,

  F                      F 
Rocking rando, getting rowdy,
     C                                F
Shooting roman candles at the man in the moon,
    F              
til the Alabama sun was breaking.

   F                          C
Over Talladega, boys raised up,
 Am                    G
Whiskey in your glass, here's to turning up,
  F                          C
Slowing down and cars that go real fast,
 Am                    G
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
  F                          C
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
 Am                    G
Sure would like to stay in, Talladega.

    F                                  C
When the winds go cold and it blows October,
     F                        F    
I think about us shoulder to shoulder,
   C                                       F
Like those cars my thoughts roll over and over and over,
   F
In my mind.

   F                          C
Tonight I'm in Talladega, boys raised up,
 Am                    G
Whiskey in your glass, here's to turning up,
  F                          C
Slowing down and cars that go real fast,
 Am                    G
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing,
  F                          C
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving,
 Am                    G
Sure would like to stay in, Talladega
