(Verse 1)
[Cmaj7] Yeah, you used to talk about
[Cmaj7] Getting even further South
[Fmaj7] Somewhere where the summer lasted all year 'round
Probably got a [Cmaj7]big ol' diamond on your hand right now
[Cmaj7]Maybe a baby or a couple by now
[Fmaj7]Long driveway to a big white house
(Chorus)
But I [Dm7]wonder when you're drinking if you
[G] Find yourself thinking about
[Cmaj7] That boy from East Tennes[Am7]Tennessee
And I [Dm7]know we both knew better
But we[G]we still said forever
And tha[Cmaj7]that was seven summers
Of [Am7]Coke and Southern Comfort
Were we[Dm7]we dumb or just younger, who kn[G]knows?
Back then, you [Cmaj7]used to love the river
And [Am7]sippin' on a sixer with me[Dm7]me
Does it ever make you sad to know
[G]That was seven summers ago?
(Post-Chorus)
[Cmaj7]Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-[Fmaj7]ooh-ooh
(Verse 2)
[Cmaj7] Yeah, I bet your daddy's so proud
[Cmaj7] Of how his little girl turned out
[Fmaj7] Think she dodged a bullet
Of a [Fmaj7]good old boy like me
'Cause I still,[Cmaj7]still, go drinkin', same friends on Friday
[Cmaj7]Bought a few acres, couple roads off the highway
[Fmaj7]Guess you never saw things my way anyway
(Chorus)
But I [Dm7]wonder when you're drinking if you
[G] Find yourself thinking about
[Cmaj7] That boy from East Tennes[Am7]Tennessee
And I [Dm7]know we both knew better
But we[G]we still said forever
And tha[Cmaj7]that was seven summers
Of [Am7]Coke and Southern Comfort
Were we[Dm7]we dumb or just younger, who kn[G]knows?
Back then, you [Cmaj7]used to love the river
And [Am7]sippin' on a sixer with me[Dm7]me
Does it ever make you sad to know
[G]That was seven summers ago?
(Post-Chorus)
[Cmaj7]Ooh
Seven summers ag[Fmaj7]ago (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Seven summers ag[Cmaj7]ago (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-[Fmaj7]ooh-ooh)
(Chorus)
But I [Dm7]wonder when you're drinking if you
[G] Find yourself thinking about
[Cmaj7] That boy from East Tennes[Am7]Tennessee
And I [Dm7]know we both knew better
But we[G]we still said forever

(Outro)

Seven summers ag[Fmaj7]ago (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Seven summers ag[Cmaj7]ago (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-[Fmaj7]ooh-ooh)
