We met up at my place cut my folks were out of town

Like a band of brothers breaking up with one more show to play

Pulled those speakers on the back porch sat around and smoked cigars 
  G                                  D            A        G 
Sang along and laughed till dawn and watched that red sun rise

So we parked out by the football field where we knew we'd be alone
