GC
We loaded up my old stationwagon
DG
With a tent a coleman and sleepin' bags
C
Some fishin' poles a cooler of cokes
DG
Three days before we had to be back
AmD
When you're seven you're in seventh heaven
G
When you're going campin' in the wild outdoors
AmC
As we turned off on that old dirt road
AmD
He looked at me and swore…
(Chorus)
GDCAm
Dad, this could be the best day of my life
DCGD
I've been dreamin' day and night about the fun we'll have
GEmCAm
Just me and you doing what I've always wanted to
CAmDG
I'm the luckiest boy alive this is the best day of my life.
GC
His fifteenth birthday rolled around
DG
Classic cars were his thing
C
When I pulled in the drive with that old Vette
DG
I thought that boy would go insane
Am
When you're in your teens
DG
Your dreams revolve around four spinnin' wheels
AmC
We worked nights on end till it was new again
AmD
And as he sat behind the wheel…
(repeat Chorus)
CAmDG
Standin' in a little room in back of the church with our tux's on
CAmD
Lookin' at him I say, I can't believe son that you're grown…
(Chorus)
GDCAm
He said Dad, this could be the best day of my life
DCGD
I've been dreamin' day and night of being like you
GEmCAm
Now it's me and her watchin' you and Mom I've learned
CAmDG
I'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life
CAmDG
I'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life.
