(Verse)
EA
Well I took up golf a little late in life.
EA
I got a set of clubs from my sweet wife.
EB7
She said, "You've been spending too much time at home.
EA
Me and some good old buddies of mine,
EA
heading to the links for the very first time.
EB7E
And I discovered the greatest sport I've ever known.
(Verse)
EA
Well its a lot like fishing without the lake.
EA
You get up early and you stay out late.
EB7
Take everything you own and toss it on the cart.
EA
Ice chest, cold beer, pork rinds too.
EA
Golf clubs, golf balls, tees and shoes.
EB7E
Then you're off down the fairway chasing that little white ball.
(Chorus)
AB7
Cow pasture pool.
EA
Learning all the rules.
F#mB
Red stakes, hazards, white stakes, out of bounds.
AB7
Well I'm hitting five, hollering four,
EA
writing three down for my score.
EB7E
Lord I really love this game of golf.
(Verse)
EA
Well you got to make a side bet on every hole.
EA
Nothing more than a dollar or so.
EB7
Longest off the tee box, the closest one to the pin.
EA
Theres birdies, greenies, sandies and trash.
EA
Man I hope I brought enough cash.
EB7E
If I can sink a forty foot putt I think I'll win.
(Chorus)
(Verse)
EA
Now its quiet on the tee box, about to hit.
EA
Grab a club, ya swing hard and ya holler ah s**t.
EB7
I hit another mulligen, that ones out of play.
EA
Yer head down, swing easy, back in your stance.
EA
You hit it past the ladies tee box or drop your pants.
EB7E
There aint no better way to spend the day.
(Chorus)
AB7
I'm hitting five, hollering four,
EA
writing three down for my score.
EB7E
Lord I really love this game of golf.
AE
Well it looks like a gimme to me.
