[Verse]
G F C
It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long
G F C
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
G F C
She was 17 and she was far from in between
G F C
It was summertime in Northern Michigan
[Interlude]
G F C C 2x
Ahh, ahh
[Verse]
G F C
Splashin' thru the sandbar, talkin' by the campfire
G F C
It's the simple things in life like when and where
G F C
We didn't have no internet, but man I never will forget
G F C
The way the moonlight shined upon her hair
[Chorus]
G F
And we were tryin' different things
C
and we were smokin' funny things
G F C
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
G F C
Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
G F C G F C
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
G F C
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long
[Verse]
G F C
Catchin' walleye from the dock watchin' waves roll off the rocks
G F C
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
G F C
We'd blister in the sun we couldn't wait for night to come
G F C
To hit that sandy place of rock 'n roll
[Chorus]
G F
And we were tryin' different things
C
and we were smokin' funny things
G F C
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
G F C
Sippin' whisky out the bottle not thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
G F C G F C
Singin' sweet home alabama all summer long

[Verse]
G F C
Now nothin' seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
G F C
Oh how we thought those days would never end
G F C
Sometimes I hear that song and I'll start to sing along
G F C C C
And think man I'd like to see that girl again
[Chorus]
G F
And we were tryin' different things
C
and we were smokin' funny things
G F C
Makin' love out by the lake to our favorite songs
