[Am] [C] [Am]
[C] [Am] [C]
Sitting on the toolbox [Am] in this short bed [C] Chevrolet.
[Am] I come out [C] here to the county line [F] when I [C] need some time to think.
[Am] And lately [C] I've been thinking [Am] about a boy I [C] used to know.
[Am] He was taken from [C] this world at [F] 21 [C] years old.
[G] When I look up at that photograph, see the [Dm] smile there on his face.
[G] Well, man, it sure is hard to [Dm] grasp, but I know [C] he's [F] in a better [G] place.
[F] Cuz God's [C] got a spot in [G] heaven for good old boys like [C] us.
[F] Yeah, he knows when [C] things just ain't our [G] fate.
So up there they [C] drive pickup [Am] trucks.
And as we [G] speak, they're probably [F] spending tires and [C] slinging mud.
[Dm] Yeah, [Am] God's [F] got a place.
[Am] Yeah, [G] God's [F] got a place for good old [C] boys like us.
[Am] You ever get [C] the feeling [Am] that they still [C] hang around?
[Am] Yeah, you can [C] almost feel them, [F] though they're [C] nowhere to be found.
[Am] Some people tell [C] me, son, [Am] it's all [C] in your head.
[Am] But I say, hey, [C] it's just their [F] way of watching over [C] us, my friend.
[G] Life goes on when we lose someone.
[Dm] Just say it ain't our time yet.
[G] The country folks just ain't the [Dm] kind of [C] people [F] to forget.
[G]
[F] That God's [C] got a spot in [G] heaven for good old boys like [C] us.
[F] Yeah, he knows [C] when things just ain't our [G] fate.
So up there they [C] drive pickup [Am] trucks.
And as we [G] speak, they're probably [F] spending tires and [C] slinging mud.
[Dm] Yeah, [Am] God's [F] got a place.
[Am] Yeah, [G] God's [F] got a place for good old [C] boys like us.
[G] Oh, yeah, for good old [Dm] boys like us.
[F] When I climb a Bofac [C] toolbox and [F] slide up in the [C] seat,
I thank [G] God for taking [Dm] care of my buddy [F] until the next time we meet.
God's got a spot [C] in [G] heaven for good old boys like [C] us.
[F] Yeah, they've [C] always got our [G] backs from somewhere [C] up [A] above.
[Am] Because the country [G] boy always looks [F] out for the ones [C] that he loves.
[Dm] Yeah, [C] God's [F] got a place.
[Dm] Hey, [C] God's [F] got a place.
[Am] Yeah, [G] God's got a [F]
place for good old [C] boys like us.
Oh, yeah, for good old boys like [Dm]
us.
