When they open the bar I’ll be there on the stool
And forget all my cares in a hurry
And it’s my belief that I’ll find relief
In a bottle of Tennessee courage

Her memory keeps waitin’ in the light every night
Alone with the last of my always
But I’ll never crawl, I can hold up the wall
With the help of some Tennessee courage

Chorus:
Now my good friend Jack Daniels stands tall on the shelf
And he’ll go to war with my troubles
And he’ll never desert this old friend when I’m hurt
And needin’ some Tennessee courage

Straight ninety proof can all turn to truth
The hair on your chest in a hurry
I know I’ll survive, raise hell for awhile
With the help of some Tennessee courage

Chorus

Tag:
No he’ll never desert this old friend when I’m hurt
And needin’ some Tennessee courage
So pour me some Tennessee courage

If you drive [Am/E]around back in our home town
I wonder, do you think of me?
When you drive by the [Am/E]school, do you remember two fools?
I wonder, do you think of me

And remember the park, where you struck a spark
to fire that’s still burning a hole in my heart
then on graduation [Am/E]day, you just drifted away
I wonder, do you think of me?

Interlude: F Am/E Bb Bbm F C F C

Remember those g[Am/E]ames, those cold football games
I was your hero though I seldom played
Back then could you [Am/E]see what our future would be
I wonder, do you think of me

And the classes we missed caused by a kiss
I can tell you that I’ve never felt like that since
I don’t know if you [Am/E]would, but I’d go back if I could
I wonder do you think of me
I still love you, do you think of me?
