[Verse 1]
Well,
Am     G            Am              G         Am
he was pushing eighty, but he acted twenty two
F                  C                   G
He could laugh and drink just like his grandchildren would
      Am
've do
                     G         Am
There was square hay on the meadow,
               G      Am
second cutting of the year
Well,
    F               C              G               Am
his summer work was over once they got the pasture cleared

[Verse 2]
                     G       Am
They were drinking on the big  bluff,
                 G        Am
across the river from the field
Well,
         F          C                     G
he walked up to the edge and threw a stone in and he
       Am
kneeled
                   G        Am
And he looked down at the water, he said, "Boys,
    G        Am
I'm going in"
          F
They were cheering when he jumped,
C           G                Am
 but he did not come up again

[Chorus]
      F             C
Well, raise another round, boys,
    G            Am
and have another glass
   F                 C        G           E
Be thankful for today knowing it'll never last
          F               C                 G
And let's leave the world laughin' when our eulogies are
Am
read
       F          C                G                 Am
May we all get to Heaven 'fore the devil knows we're dead
          F       C                G                 Am
May we all get to Heaven 'fore the devil knows we're dead

[Verse 3]
Am                      G      Am
  Well, it was twenty after midnight,
                         G     Am
and they were going eighty five
              F               C                 G
But she was barely out of highschool wantin' bad to feel
 Am
alive
           Am      G
And just a twolane piece of blacktop,
  Am     G              Am
a snakey stretch of road
              F                     C
Well, the wind blew through the wing vents,
          G                Am
it was clear and fresh and cold

[Verse 4]
Well,
           G              Am                    G
the driver killed the headlights and he put the throttle
Am
down
          F                C
When they hit the railroad crossin',
              G                   Am
they were five feet off the ground
                 G              Am                     G
Just a screamin' through the mid  night 'til they came down
 Am
again
          F                   C
Well, the front tire hit a bar ditch,
     G               Am
they went endover end

[Chorus]
      F             C
Well, raise another round, boys,
    G            Am
and have another glass
   F                 C        G           E
Be thankful for today knowing it'll never last
          F               C                 G

  Well, I'm twenty eight years old now,
I was born in eighty four
              F             C              G              Am

    Am
last  breath
Well,
     F          C           G                Am
tell everyone I know that I loved 'em all to death
