[Verse]
G                   C      G
Blink an eye at the yellow light
       Em  G                      D
Oh and you just might miss it all together
G                    C     G
Just an old BP and a Dairy Queen
          Em      G                      D
Where the farmers meet to talk about the weather


[Chorus]
       G
It's a tailgate town
                   Em
Just a needle on a map dot route
                       C
Hundred miles from the highway sound
                 G     D
In the middle of nowhere
           G
Where time came and went
          Em
Flying by like a new Corvette
                 C
Oh, but we ain't left it yet
                    G    D                   G C G   G Em G D
We're still kicking around this tailgate town

Friday night
      C        G        Em             G
Every soul for miles is underneath the lights
             D
Cheering all together
G               C       G
In '88, yeah we went to State
G            Em  G                  D
There wasn't any place that was any better


[Chorus]
          G
Than this tailgate town
                   Em
Just a needle on a map dot route
                       C
Hundred miles from the highway sound
                 G     D
In the middle of nowhere
           G
Where time came and went
          Em
Flying by like a new Corvette
                 C
Oh, but we ain't left it yet
                    G    D                   G C G   G Em G D
We're still kicking around this tailgate town

 G         C    G        Em   G      D
(Woah woah woah oh. Woah woah oh. Woah)

G
Church of Christ
            C      G
Chairs down in the aisle
              Em      G                   D
Where someone gets baptized or sent up to Heaven
G
And they will rest in peace
             C       G
Beneath that old oak tree
         Em        G                   D
Yeah and just like me, they'll be here forever

 G         C    G        Em   G      D
Woah woah woah oh. Woah woah oh. Woah
       G
In the tailgate town

 G         C    G        Em   G      D
