Intro: F C Am G (2x) 

   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
