C                             Am7
He said the way my blue eyes shined
                             F
Put those Georgia stars to shame that night
                  G
I said, that’s a lie

Just a boy in a Chevy truck
that had a tendency Of getting stuck
on back roads at night

F                               G
And I was right there beside him all summer long
      F                   Am7
And then the time we woke up
            F        G
to find that summer gone, but

Chorus:
                C
When you think Tim McGraw,
                     Am7
I hope you think my favorite song
                     F
The one we danced to all night long
                  G
The moon like a spotlight on the lake

When you think happiness,
I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest
and my old faded blue jeans,
 G              F        G
When you think Tim McGraw
                     C
I hope you think of me

September saw a month of tears
And thankin' God that you weren't here
To see me like that
But in a box beneath my bed
Is a letter that you never read
From three summers back
It's hard not to find it all a little bittersweet
And lookin' back on all of that,
it's nice to believe

Chorus

F
And I’m back for the first time since then
G
I’m standing on your street,
               F              Am7
And there’s a letter left on your doorstep
          F                       G
And the first thing that you’ll read...
                C
When you think Tim McGraw,
                     Am7
I hope you think my favorite song
                          F
Someday you’ll turn your radio on
           G
I hope it takes you back to that place

Chorus:
When you think happiness
I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest
And my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw
I hope you think of me
Oh, think of me

He said the way my blue eyes shine
Put those Georgia stars to shame that night
I said, "That's a lie"
