I (D)had my first taste of beer, my first (A)taste of a broken heart
There were (Bm)good times, there were tears, but every (G)red dirt memory (A) left a mark
Like the (D)words written there in red like the (A)streets that are made of gold
Where we (Bm)always bowed our (A)heads, where mamma (G)saved our seats and (A)Jesus
saved our souls
