If This Bus Could Talk chords by Kenny Chesney

Verse:

D                G        D
He was there when I started, in Knoxville, Tennessee

D              A
Opening for Patty Loveless, November of '93

D
Full of friends, mom, and uncle Butch

    G        D
And the crowd was really small

         Bm      G        D      G     A
He'd say I was a scared kid, if this bus could talk

D
Some nights we'd dance with the devil

      G         D
Some nights we'd pray to the Lord

D
Between vibrant passes and margarita glasses

    A
He was never really bored

D              G         D
We were starry eyed dreamers, bouncing off the wall

          Bm       G         D
And all the stories he could tell, if this bus could talk

Chorus:

G           D
He'd seen pool halls in Texas

     Em        D
And every corndog county fair

G          D           A
Girls that we'd make cry, some crowds that didn't care

  G            D
When Bobby rolled us down in 'Bama

    Em         D
He kept rocking through it all

D        G
All the stories he could tell

A         D        G      A
If this bus could talk

Verse:

D                 G      D
Late night conversations, full of drunk philosophy

D             A
On politics and religion, football and family

D                 G        D
The lovers that we missed, and the lovers that we lost

D        Bm       G         D
All the secrets he could share, if this bus could talk


G         D    Em       D
He'd seen Virginia Beach, caught in a hurricane

G        D           A
Heroes I wish I never met but he ain't naming names

G             D
We learned the code of the road at The Grizzly Rose

Em      D
Then we had a ball

D        Em
All the stories he could tell

A         D        G     A
If this bus could talk


D              G       D
Many years of summers, and I hope it never ends

D                  A
Been down so many highways, full of twists and turns and bends

D                G           D
We caught lightning in a bottle, somehow we survived it all

D        Bm       G         D
All the stories he could tell, if this bus could talk

Chorus:

G       D      Em       D
As I leave the stage, still high from your applause

          C
He'd tell you that I love you

A         D      G
If this bus could talk

A         D      G
If this bus could talk

A         D      G
If this bus could talk

A         D
If this bus could talk
