[C]Yeah, you used to talk about, [C]getting even further South
[F]Somewhere where the summer lasted all year ’round
Probably got a [C]big old diamond on your hand right now
[C]Maybe a baby or a couple by now, [F]long driveway to a big white house


But I [Dm]wonder when you’re drinking if you, [G]find yourself thinking about
[C]That boy from East [Am]Tennessee, and I [Dm]know we both knew better
But [G]we still said forever, and [C]that was seven summers
Of [Am]Coke and Southern Comfort, were [Dm]we dumb or just younger, who [G]knows?
Back then, you [C]used to love the river and [Am]sipping on a sixer with [Dm]me
Does it ever make you sad to know, [G]that was seven summers ago?
[C]Ooh, ooh-ooh, [F]ooh-ooh


[C]Yeah, I bet your daddy’s so proud, [C]of how his little girl turned out
[F]Think she dodged a bullet, of a [F]good old boy like me
‘Cause I [C]still, go drinking, same friends on Friday
[C]Bought a few acres, couple roads off the highway
[F]Guess you never saw things my way anyway


But I [Dm]wonder when you’re drinking if you, [G]find yourself thinking about
[C]That boy from East [Am]Tennessee, and I [Dm]know we both knew better
But [G]we still said forever, and [C]that was seven summers
Of [Am]Coke and Southern Comfort, were [Dm]we dumb or just younger, who [G]knows?
Back then, you [C]used to love the river, and [Am]sipping on a sixer with [Dm]me
Does it ever make you sad to know, [G]that was seven summers ago?
[C]Ooh, seven summers [F]ago (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Seven summers [C]ago (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, [F]ooh-ooh)


But I [Dm]wonder when you’re drinking if you, [G]find yourself thinking about
[C]That boy from East [Am]Tennessee, and I [Dm]know we both knew better
But [G]we still said forever, and [C]that was seven summers
Of [Am]Coke and Southern Comfort, were [Dm]we dumb or just younger, who [G]knows?
Back then, you [C]used to love the river, and [Am]sipping on a sixer with [Dm]me
Does it ever make you sad to know, [G]that was seven summers ago?


[C]Ooh Seven summers [F]ago (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Seven summers [C]ago (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, [F]ooh-ooh)
