D     G    D   G Bm  A

[Verse]

D
A small town revolved around
G
A piece of blacktop holy ground
D
Sunday mornings, Wednesday nights
G
Circled up after Friday night lights

Bm                                               G
Never learned all the words to the verse on the sign outside
Bm                                            G
But we lived a lot of life between painted white lines

[Chorus]

D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D                                      G       Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D                                            G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm                 A                  G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm                    A                G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
                           D
In that church parking lot

[Solo]

D G Bm A

[Verse]

   D
The baptizing, the flags flying
 G
The fireworks on the Fourth of July
 D
Pot luck and all the fixings
G
Granny made her famous fried chicken
Bm                                         G
Sang "Amazing Grace," broke bread, and we drank the wine
Bm                                      D
We lived a lot of life between painted white lines


[Chorus]

D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D                                     G       Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D                                            G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm                 A                  G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm                 A                G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
                       D       G
In that church parking lot
                       D
In that church parking lot

[Bridge]

D
I've seen it all, it's been a blessing
G
Brand new babies and white dress weddings
D
For the troops that didn't make it back
G
Black umbrellas and black Cadillacs

[Chorus]

D
Where I had my first sip of whiskey
G
Smoked up my best friend's truck
D                                     G       Bm A
Talking 'bout who we gonna be when we grow up
D
The same place where she first kissed me
G
The same place where we broke up
D                                            G
Thinking young love lasts forever, but it never does
Bm                 A                  G
Looking back, I learned more than I thought
Bm                 A                G
Like how to love and cuss and talk to God
                       D
And God knows I owe all I got
                   G
To that church parking lot
                     D
Yeah, that church parking lot
