Verse 1
            F           C
It was the summer before the real world started and
Am7            G         
 The deal was we would get to go 
     F             C                    Am7          G
If we cleaned it up and got it running, Daddy's old Winnebago
F                   C           Am7                   G
 Wing and a prayer down the 65, five best friends on four bald tires
      Fsus2             C                     Fsus2
I can still see Billy smiling when we finally made it



Chorus
         F           C        Am7              G
To Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass 
           F            C              Am7                G
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
          F                    C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
     Am7               G                Fsus2
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
                     G           F            
Sure would like to stay in Talladega


Interlude    (F)   C    |Am7   G    ||



Verse 2
F               C                 Am7                     G   
 Like a stone, time rolls on; you can't hit pause that?s just the deal
 F                 C                   Am7                G
Most days in life don't stand out but life's about those days that will 
    F              C                 Am7            G              
Like Rockin Randall, getting rowdy, shooting roman candles
        F                       C                 G    
At the man in the moon ?til the Alabama sun was breaking.




Chorus
           F           C        Am7              G
Over Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass
           F            C              Am7                G
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
          F                    C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
     Am7               G                Fsus2
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
                     G           F            
Sure would like to stay in Talladega


Solo    (F)   C    |Am7   G    ||x2



Bridge
         Fsus2                                  
When the winds grow cold and it blows October

I think about us shoulder to shoulder
                                                                G
Like those cars, my thoughts roll over and over and over in my mind



Chorus
                     F           C        Am7              G
Tonight I'm in Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass
           F            C              Am7                G
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
          F                    C
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
     Am7               G                Fsus2
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
                     G           F    
Sure would like to stay in Talladega
