intro
G B7 C D D/C D/B D/A
G
Don't I know you from the time before
B7
I think I saw you in the country store
C
Buying food for the family
D D/C D/B D/A
You never knew all that well
G
She had a sadness I could not place
B7
She had such a pretty Southern face
C
And I knew she'd walk out
D D/C D/B D/A G
Leaving me with a heart I could not sell
Chorus 1:
Em C
But you can feel the summertime
G D
Getting high on screwtop wine
C G
Trying not to spin
D G
And laughing right out loud
See the black man sitting there
Sitting in the rocking chair
He plays the blues
People throw coins his way
In some ways I'm a lot like him
Singin' about what might have been
Laugh and love, cry and wish
But tomorrow, it's another day
Chorus 2:
It's the cold time of the year
Sit and drink your bottled beer
Talking to your friends
They're laughing right out loud
I remember when I learned to run
The day sets on my daddys son
I let this music take me
Far from this crowd
So when you think about the days of old
Listen to that Hill Country Gold
Hold onto love
Keep on laughing, right out loud
Chorus 1
