[Intro]
D G D G Bm A
[Verse]
D
A small town revolved around
G
A piece of blacktop holy ground
D
Sunday mornings, Wednesday nights
G
Circled up after Friday night lights
Bm G
Never learned all the words to the verse on the sign outside
Bm G
But we lived a lot of life between painted white lines
[Chorus]
D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D G Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm A G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm A G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
D
In that church parking lot
[Solo]
D G Bm A
[Verse]
D
The baptizing, the flags flying
G
The fireworks on the Fourth of July
D
Pot luck and all the fixings
G
Granny made her famous fried chicken
Bm G
Sang "Amazing Grace," broke bread, and we drank the wine
Bm D
We lived a lot of life between painted white lines
[Chorus]
D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D G Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm A G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm A G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
D G
In that church parking lot
D
In that church parking lot
[Bridge]
D
I've seen it all, it's been a blessing
G
Brand new babies and white dress weddings
D
For the troops that didn't make it back
G
Black umbrellas and black Cadillacs
[Chorus]
D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D G Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm A G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm A G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
D
And God knows I owe all I got
G
To that church parking lot
D
Yeah, that church parking lot
[outro]
D G Bm A D
