Kid Rock
Am, C, D, Dm, Em, F, G
It was 1989, my thoughts were short, my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen, she was far from in between
It was summertime in northern Michigan
Splashin' through the sandbar, talkin' 'bout campfire
It's the simple things in life, like when and where
We didn't have no internet, but man I never will forget the way the sunlight shined upon her hair
And we were trying different things, we were smoking funny things
Making love up by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long
Singing sweet home Alabama all summer long
Catching walleye from the dock
Watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We blister in the sun
Couldn't wait for night to come
Hit that sand and play some rock and roll
And we were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle
Not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing sweet home Alabama all summer long
Singing sweet home Alabama all summer long
Yeah, yeah
Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves begin to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I hear that song
And I start to sing along
And I think, oh man, I'd love to see that girl again
Oh man, I'd love to see that girl again
We were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake
To our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle
Not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
Singin' "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long
Singin' "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long
Singin' "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long
