[Intro]
Am C| Am C| Am C| F C/G
Am C Am C
Sittin' on the toolbox in this short bed Chevro- let
Am C F C
I come out here to the county line when I need some time to think
Am C Am C
And lately I've been thinking' 'bout a boy I used to know
Am C F C
He was taken from this world at twenty one years old
[Pre-Chorus]
G Dm
When I look up at that photograph, see the smile there on his face
G Dm Em F
Well man, it sure is hard to grasp, but I know he's in a better place
[Chorus]
F C G C
'Cause God's got a spot in heaven for good ol' boys like us
F C G C
Yeah, He knows wings just ain't our thing, so up there they drive pick up trucks
Am G F G C
And as we speak they're probably spinning tires and slinging mud
Dm Em F Am G F C
Yeah, God's got a place, yeah, God's got a place --- for good ol' boys like us
---
Am C Am C
You ever get the feelin' that they still hang a- round
Am C F C
Yeah, you can almost feel them, though their no where to be found
Am C Am C
Some people tell me " Son, it's all in your head"
Am C F C
But I say, "Hey, it's just their way of watching over us my friend"
[Pre-Chorus]
G Dm
Well life goes on when we lose someone,'cause it ain't our time yet
G Dm Em F
But country folks just ain't the kind of people to for- get
[Chorus]
F C G C
'Cause God's got a spot in heaven for good ol' boys like us
F C G C
Yeah, He knows wings just ain't our thing, so up there they drive pick up trucks
Am G F G C
And as we speak they're probably spinning tires and slinging mud
Dm Em F Am G F C
Yeah, God's got a place, yeah, God's got a place for good ol' boys like us
[Solo]
Oh yeah, for good ol' boys like us
G Dm Em F
F
When I climb up off that toolbox and slide up in the seat
C G Dm F
I thank God for taking care of my buddy until the next time we meet
F C G C
God's got a spot in heaven for good ol' boys like us
F C G
Yeah, they've always got our backs from somewhere up above
Am G F C
Because a country boy al- ways looks out for the ones that he loves
Dm Em F Dm Em F
Yeah, God's got a place, hey, God's got a place
Am G F C
Yeah, God's got a place --- for good ol' boys like us
Dm Em F
Oh yeah, for good ol' boys like us
