Sittin' On A Tailgate
JJ Lawhorn
Album: Original Good Ol' Boy
Capo 1
Intro: |  C|  Dm|  F|  G|
When them cCity boys cross the county lines
We circle the trDmucks cut on the lights
Man I've seen some good fiFghtsao
                   G   C-s
  Sittin' on a tailgate-sa
Me and my daddy waitin' on the sun
DmDouble old buck shot in my gun
BlFack and tan hound dCog itchin' to run
  GSittin' on a tailgate-sa
CDrop it down, jump on up
The thDmings you can see from the back of a truck
A frFont row seat to laugh and love
At a smGall town pace
Hey if you're loCoking for me, I can be found
With tDmhese old boots a few feet off the grFound
                      G|  C|  Dm|
  Sittin' on a tailgate-sa
CWe found a little spot we like to park
DmFrom that first kiss she stole my heart
FBut one night man she tore it apart
  GSittin' on a tailgate-sa,
I've suCng my share of old Hank songs
DmEven wrote a few of my own
FAll my buddies they sing along
  GSittin' on a tailgaCte-sa
CDrop it down, jump on up
The thDmings you can see from the back of a truck
A frFont row seat to laugh and love
