[Verse 1]
C C Am
And there's a midJuly white tail in velvet
C Dm F
Red as your old Chevrolet
C G F C
And I was sixteen when you wrecked it and we
Dm Am G
Were lucky we both walked away
C Am
And you could day work and scrape out a living
C Dm F
The work for which you had been born
C G F C
You were quick with a laugh and forgiving
Dm Am G
And tied hard and fast to the horn
C Am
We had Kelpies and good quarter horses
C Dm F
We had wheat pasture yearlings tied down
C G F C
We learned pain was the price of admission
Dm
And you're never done paying it down
[Chorus]
Am
G Am G F C
Back on the Red River not hard to remember
Am G F
When your daddy would never get old
C G C F
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
Am G
I remember the view
F C
When you live like we do
Am G Dm Am
And death doesn't leave with the best part of you
[Verse 2]
G C Am
On days off we'd help out our neighbors
C Dm F
And we'd smile and we'd sweat it for free
C G F C
You'd earned every drink with your labor
Dm Am G
And I'd sleep on your front seat til three
C Am
And you'd call it a cure for a snake bite
C Dm F
A reach for a fifth of old crow
C G F C
Some medicine should get your head right
Dm
When the symptoms were starting to show
[Chorus]
Am
G Am G F C
Back on the Red River not hard to remember
Am G F
When your daddy would never get old
C G C F
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
Am G
I remember the view
F C
When you live like we do
Am G Dm Am G
And death couldn't leave with the best part of you

[Verse 3]
G C Am
And there are pickups lined up down the driveway
C Dm F
Have I really been gone for two years?
C G F C
I'd be on my third on a good day
Dm
I'd find my last bottle of beer
Am G C Am
I guess Saturday started without you
C Dm F
I knew before I got the call
C G F C
And the red July bugs were in velvet
Dm Am
I'll tell you about 'em this fall
[Chorus]
G Am G F C
Back on the Red River not hard to remember
Am G F
When your daddy would never get old
C G C F
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
Am G
I remember the view
F C
When you live like we do
Am G Dm
And death doesn't leave with the best part of you
Am G C F
Gotta look at the world from up on your shoulders
[Outro]
Am G F C
I remember the view when you lived like we do
Am G Dm Am
Death doesn't leave with the best part of you
