Verse:
G        D           Em             G          D  Em  G  G
We push county line limits when we kick it in gear
 D              Em          G           D  Em  G  G
Kept our mama's up raisin' hell around here
          D           Em          G        D  G  G
Been the talk of the town and the evening news
        D       Em          G        D  D  G
Made a big ol' mark like a drunk tattoo

D            Em
So when our time ticks down, I got no doubt
G
We'll be sticking around


Chorus:
      D         Em             G        D
In a raised up glass 'round a backyard fire
 D           Em           G          D
Young blood singing in a church pew choir
 D        En           G      D
Polaroid hanging on a Maytag door
 D         Em          G        D
Red Wings scuffs on a hardwood floor

 D     Em        G      D
Soon, when they lay us down
            D           Em       G          D
We'll have written our names all over this town
 D             Em       G      Em
Living in the memories left behind

 Bm          A      G       D
That's where we go when we die
 Bm          A      G       D  D  G  D  G  G  G
That's where we go when we die


Verse:
           D          Em           G      D   Em  G  G
When they write your history on a marble stone
     D            Em       G            D  Em  G  G
And all of those lifelong seeds you've sown
 D          Em          G     D  Em  G
Grow up in ways you'll never know
G         D            Em         G            D
But that photo on the wall's got something to show


Chorus:
      D         Em             G        D
In a raised up glass 'round a backyard fire
 D           Em           G          D
Young blood singing in a church pew choir
 D        Em           G      D
Polaroid hanging on a Maytag door
 D         Em          G        D
Red Wings scuffs on a hardwood floor

 D     Em        G      D
Soon, when they lay us down
            D           Em       G          D
We'll have written our names all over this town
 D             Em       G      Em
Living in the memories left behind

 Bm          A      G       D
That's where we go when we die
 Bm          A      G       D  Em  G  G
That's where we go when we die


Break:
G   Em
Oh gone ain't never gonna mean goodbye
 G                                     G
Long as you're loved you're still alive


Chorus:
      D         Em             G        D
In a raised up glass 'round a backyard fire
   D          Em             G         D
A Chevy slow rolling down a dirt road drive
 D          Em            G         D
Close call stories and a couple of scars
 D          Em           G         D
First love fallen under riverbank stars

 D     Em        G      D
Soon, when they lay us down
            D           Em       G          D
We'll have written our names all over this town
 D             Em       G      Em
Living in the memories left behind

 Bm          A      G       D
That's where we go when we die
 Bm          A      G       D
That's where we go when we die
 Bm          A      G
That's where we go-oooo
         D  D  G  D  G  G  G
When we die
