[Verse 1]
G
The preacher said some words
D
And we all gathered 'round
C
We threw handfuls of dirt
D
As they laid him in the ground
G
But on his dying day
D
He handed me a note
C
Said "Read this when I'm gone"
D
And this is what he wrote
[Chorus]
G
Have a cold beer with your hot wings
C
And a good time with your friends
G
Take that drive down to Daytona
D
'Cause who knows when you'll get to go again
Em7 D
Pull her close and love her right
C G
Show her what forever's for
Am
Take a little time
G C
Send a prayer up to the good Lord
Em D G C
And P.S.: Life's too short to drivе a Ford
[Verse 2]
G
So I sold my F-150
C
Parked a Silverado in the drivе
G
Drove that truck down to Hooters
D
For a few round with the guys
Em D C
Last night I told my wife I'll love her long as I'm alive
Am G
We all thought he was crazy
C D
But God knows he was right when he said
[Chorus]
G
Have a cold beer with your hot wings
C
And a good time with your friends
G
Take that drive down to Daytona
D
'Cause who knows when you'll get to go again
Em7 D
Pull her close and love her right
C G
Show her what forever's for
Am
Take a little time
G C
Send a prayer up to the good Lord
Em D G C G C
And P.S.: Life's too short to drivе a Ford
[Bridge]
G
(Now listen up)
C
Pictures last longer
C
Chevys build stronger
D
You only live one time
C
You know his final words, they hit me
D
So I'm gonna live until I die
[Chorus]
G
Have a cold beer with your hot wings
C
And a good time with your friends
G
Take that drive down to Daytona
D
'Cause who knows when you'll get to go again
Em7 D
Pull her close and love her right
C G
Show her what forever's for
Am
Take a little time
G C
Send a prayer up to the good Lord
Em D
And remember life's too short to drive a Ford
