Me and some good old buddies of mine,
E A
heading to the links for the very first time.
E B7 E
And I discovered the greatest sport I've ever known.
[Verse]
E A
Well its a lot like fishing without the lake.
E A
You get up early and you stay out late.
E B7
Take everything you own and toss it on the cart.
E A
Ice chest, cold beer, pork rinds too.
E A
Golf clubs, golf balls, tees and shoes.
E B7 E
Then you're off down the fairway chasing that little white ball.
[Chorus]
A B7
Cow pasture pool.
E A
Learning all the rules.
F#m B
Red stakes, hazards, white stakes, out of bounds.
A B7
Well I'm hitting five, hollering four,
E A
writing three down for my score.
E B7 E
Lord I really love this game of golf.
[Verse]
E A
Well you got to make a side bet on every hole.
E A
Nothing more than a dollar or so.
E B7
Longest off the tee box, the closest one to the pin.
E A
Theres birdies, greenies, sandies and trash.

If I can sink a forty foot putt I think I'll win.
