Tracy Lawrence - If the world had a front porch

It was ^Cwhere my mama sat on that old ^Gswing with her cr^Amochet, It was ^Fwhere granddaddy ^Ctaught me how to ^Ccuss and how to pr^Gay,

It was ^Amwhere we made our ^Emown ice cream those ^Fsultry summer nig^Chts, Where the ^Dmbulldog had her pup^Empies, and us ^Fbrothers had our fig^Ghts,

There were ^Cmany nights I'd sit right there and ^Glook out at th^Ame stars, To the s^Found of a distant w^Chippoorwill, o^Cr the hum of a passin' c^Gar, It was ^Amwhere I first got ^Emup the nerve to ^Fsteal me my first kis^Cs, and it was ^Dmwhere I learned to ^Emplay guitar and ^Fpray I had the gif^Gt,

If the w^Corld had a f^Front porch like ^Gwe did back ^Amthen, ^FWe'd still have our ^Cproblems, b^Gut we'd all be^G friends, ^AmTreatin' your ^Emneighbor like he's y^Four next of k^Cin ^Fwouldn't be ^Cgone, with the ^Amwind, if the w^Forld had a f^Cront porch like ^Gwe did back t^Chen ^{C F}

Purple hull^Cs and pintos, I've s^Ghelled more than my ^Amshare, lightning ^Fbugs and c^Crickets, ^CDanced in the evening a^Gir, and like ^Ama beacon that ole'^Em yellow bulb it a^Flways lead me ^Chome, some how ^Dmmama al^Emways knew, just ^Fwhen to leave it^G on,

If the world ^Chad a front ^Fporch like ^Gwe did back th^Amen, ^FWe'd still have our ^Cproblems, b^Gut we'd all be ^Gfriends, ^AmTreatin' your ^Emneighbor like he's yo^Fur next of ki^Cn ^Fwouldn't be ^Cgone, with the^Am wind, if the ^Fworld had a ^Cfront porch like ^Gwe did back t^Chen

^AmTreatin' you^Emr neighbor like he's y^Four next of k^Cin ^Fwouldn't be ^Cgone, with the ^Amwind, if the ^Fworld had a fr^Cont porch like ^Gwe did back th^Cen
