G 
Small town with big ol' sky 
       G  
It was sunset in mid July 
G                      C         D  G  
Me and my baby climbed up on the stadium 
 
G 
Sat and watched the stars come out 
        G 
We were learning what love was all about 
G                 C                D          G  
Feeling all those feelings for the very first time 
 
Pre-Chorus 1: 
              Em      C         G       D 
Yeah, we were rising above that world below 
       Em              C           G              D 
It was getting kind of late but we didn't want to go 
        Em  Em/F#?  G       C        D 
We were falling     fast as we could fall 
 
Chorus: 
               G   C      D           G      G   C    D    G 
We were in our own little world for a while, far far away 
G      C           D                 C 
Making memories to last a whole life long 
           D                   G 
Man it was just like a country song 
 
Two years down the road 
I had a ring in my pocket that was burning a hole 
I took her out to a movie on a Saturday night 
 
On the way to drop her off 
I popped the question in a Wal-Mart parking lot 
Bought a coke and a couple of wedding bands 
 
Pre-Chorus 2: 
Yeah, we were married in the morning at the old courthouse 
Took a week off of work and headed south 
We were leaving it all behind 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
          Em                 C 
And every time that this old life 
           G            F 
Weighs too heavy on our minds 
        Am                       C D  
We just slip away spend a little time 
 
Chorus 3: 
In our own little world for a while, far far away 
Dreaming dreams to keep us holding on 
 
Chorus 1 
 
Yeah, our love is like a country song 
Yeah, our lives are like a country song 
Yeah, man I should write a country song
