Corey Smith - The Football Song Chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Its like an August afternoon
G
The calm before the chaos comes
G
A rumble in the distance
G
Well before the clouds appear
G
It's what everybody's talkin' 'bout
G
Can't wait to see 'em storming out
                          Em
And thundering across the fields
G
It's almost electric
G
You can feel it in the air down here
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        Em
Let's play some football boys
D               G
Let's play some football boys
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
There's a pounding in our chests
G
And a bad blood pumping through our veins
G
Old wounds are feeling fresh
G
Aching just enough to make us mean
G
The grudge we volunteer to hold
G
Is icy hot and fiery cold
                                     Em
And we'll carry it as long as we can breathe
   G
It hurts us and it heals us
       D                     G
It's a friend and its the enemy
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        Em
Let's play some football boys
D                        G
Let's play some football boys
G
This ain't a practice anymore
Em
Lets get to settling the score
D                        G
Let's play some football boys
 
 
[Bridge]
          Am                     G
Turn your amplifier on, crank it all the way to ten
C                                         G
Make 'em dread the day they've gotta come play us again
Am                               G
It ain't life or death. It ain't marching into war.
          C                  D
But you'd better get the metaphor
                   G
Lets play some football boys
 
 
[Guitar Solo]
Em  D  G    Em  D  G
 
 
[Out-Chorus]
G                        Em
Let's play some football boys
D                        G
Let's play some football boys
G
This ain't a practice anymore
Em
Lets get to settling the score
D                 G
And play some football boys
                         Em
This ain't a practice anymore
Em
Lets get to settling the score
D                   G
Let's play some football boys
