[Intro ]
A E F#m D 

 
         A                          E 
I hit the brakes at a stoplight on 183 

The first time 
 F#m                                D 
I   ever drove was in his old red  Chevy 
                        A                               E 
He said let's get your grandma she'll want to see this too 
           F#m 
And if you get into school 

I'll give this truck to you 
 

 
         A 
Did you know you're the best 

I ever saw 
   E 
I think this year you're gonna win it all 
    F#m                                           D               E 
Your   daddy's got a real good tame but you're the only one that matters to me 
        D 
Oh but maybe if 
   E                   A           F#m 
I close my eyes say a prayer it'll be  alright 
 D            E                   A                           F#m       E 
Wake up to a smiling sun but the songbirds remember what they saw last night 
    D            E 
He wiped a tear from his eye as 
   A                F#m 
I drove on red and left  Lamp 
 D       E 
Pass us behind 
 

 
      A                                      E 
Well I know it was late but did you see the game last night 
F#m               D 
   Tied at 34 in overtime 
             A 
Man we were so tough 
                         E 
You should have seen us fight 
    F#m                                         D 
We brought it home like you taught me my whole life 
E 
 

 
E  D           E                   A           F#m 
    Baby if I close my eyes say a prayer it'll be  alright 
   D            E                   A         E                 F#m 
I wake up to a smiling sun but the songbirds remember what they saw last night 
     D            E 
You wiped a tear from my eye as 
   A                F#m     D         E 
I drove on red and left them past us behind 

Instrumental 
A E F#m D 

 
          A 
Made his favorite song for everyone he loved 
         E 
Made it through one verse some brooks and done then 
  Bm 
My  tough ran out like it always does 
 D 
So I sat there crying 
 

 
      E 
While  I barely strung 
      D 
Oh but maybe if 
   E                 A                 F#m 
I close my eyes and say a prayer it'll be  alright 
   D            E 
I wake up to a smile in the sun but the 
 A                           F#m       E 
Songbirds remember what they saw last night 
    D           E                A            F#m D        E 
I wipe a tear from my eye as a troubled red lamb  passes behind
