Im talkin bout a lighter on a Saturday night
                 B                          A
The band plays a song you like and you sing along
E
Raise em up
               G#m               C#m
Im talkin bout Daddys old pickup truck
        B                                              A
Shotgun seat, theres the one you love and youre kissin on


[Chorus]
          E           G#m             C#m
Get those white sails sailing down in Mexico
           E       G#m               A
Its just a whiskey glass if you aint makin a toast
          E           G#m     C#m 
Lift your tear-filled eyes up to the sky
  B
A comin home, youve been gone too long

You got a voice, you got a choice
Cm

B                                  A
 Dont ever let em tell you who you are

C#m

E                                       A    
 Hand on your heart for the stripes and stars


[Chorus]
E                      G#m    C#m 
Black umbrellas in the pourin rain
  E              G#m          A
A Sunday morning coming Down, amazing grace
           E                   G#m     C#m
Lift those tear-filled eyes up to the sky
       B                   A
As the flag flies, say goodbye
                   E
Tonight were gonna raise em up


(instrumental-bridge)
E  G#m  C#m,  E  A, E  G#m  C#m,  E   A,

So, you meet someone

The only one

You take her by the hand

Make a stand

Buy some land

Make some love

And them babies come
