[Verse 1]
G
Wish girls you loved never gave back diamond rings
Cadd9 G
I wish every porch had a swing
G
I wish kids still learned to say "sir" and "ma'am", how to shake a hand
Cadd9 G
I wish every state had a Birmingham
[Pre-Chorus]
D Cadd9
Wish everybody knew all the words to Mama Tried
D Cadd9
I wish Monday mornings felt just like Friday nights
[Chorus]
G
I wish even cars had truck beds
Cadd9
And every road was named Copperhead
Em D Cadd9
And coolers never ran out of cold Bud Light
G
I wish high school home teams never lost
Cadd9
And back road drinking kids never got caught
Em D Cadd9
I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
Em D Cadd9
I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time
G
And I wish grandpas never died
[Verse 2]
G
I wish Sundays on a creek bank would never end
Cadd9
Wish I could learn to drive again
G
I wish the first time, seventeen, she was my everything kiss in a Chevrolet
Cadd9
It'd happen every day
[Pre-Chorus]
D Cadd9
I wish everybody overseas was gonna make it home
D Cadd9
I wish Country music still played on Country radio
[Chorus]
G
I wish even cars had truck beds
Cadd9
And every road was named Copperhead
Em D Cadd9
And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light
G
I wish high school home teams never lost
Cadd9
And back road drinking kids never got caught
Em D Cadd9
I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
Em D Cadd9
I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time
Cadd9
And I wish grandpas never died
G
I wish grandpas never died
[Bridge]
Em D Cadd9
I wish good dogs never got grey and old
I wish farms never got sold
[Chorus]
G
I wish even cars had truck beds
Cadd9
And every road was named Copperhead
Em D Cadd9
And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light
G
I wish high school home teams never lost
Cadd9
And back road drinking kids never got caught
Em D Cadd9
I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
Em D Cadd9
I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time
G
And I wish grandpas never died
