This is a rockin' tune from their new CD "Feels Like Today".

There are many little details in the rhythms that I tried pointing out on here, but
you'll have to listen to the song to understand and be able to do them correctly.

Intro:         *

Verse:
                  
She got an old dog
                     
It don't like me much
                                  
And that thing starts to bark his head off
            *
Every time we touch
                                        
Sittin' on the porch listenin to the radio
                     
We sing every single song we know
               *
Even the ones we don't

Pre-chorus:
         
And she moves a little closer and
     
She puts her hand in mine
                                                 
Oh, what I wouldn't give just to stop the hands of time

Chorus:
                      
She's got long blonde hair
            
And big blue eyes
                    
I've got all I ever need
                      *
When that girl is by my side
                           
Everything I love is there inside
   
A little brick house on the
              (Fill)   *
Oklahoma-Texas Line

Verse:
                       
She got a part time job
                   
At the Tasty Freeze
                       
She took the weekend off to spend
                             *
A little bit of time with me
                                        
I got an old car, we drove to the edge of town
                               
We stopped by Old Man Miller's farm just to
                   *
Watch the world spin around

Pre-chorus:
     
She moves a little closer and she
 
Puts her lips to mine
          
Ain't it funny how the Good Lord
                   
Outdoes himself sometimes?

Chorus:
                      
She's got long blonde hair
            
And big blue eyes
                    
I've got all I ever need
                      *
When that girl is by my side
                           
Everything I love is there inside

This definately one of my Favorite Tracks off of this CD.  Its a great song and I hope
you enjoy learning it.  I'm only sad they didn't play this one at the show that I saw
on their new Here's To You Tour.  Maybe they'll play it in other locations.

Either way, Rock On!
