Album: Life Happened
Writers: Patrick Jason Matthews/Kerry Kurt Phillips
Intro: A D A D
A Bm7
From the time she was thirteen, Julie Thompson had a dream
A D
That someday she would see her name in lights
A Bm7
And after every high school play the grown-ups all would say
A D
That Julie's future sure is looking bright
F#m7 E D
Well I saw her selling videos at a store in Eastland Mall
F#m7 E D
I said why aren't you in Hollywood taking casting calls
Bm7 Esus E
She handed me my change and started laughing
Chorus 1:
A
And said, life happened
D E A
Me and Bobby Chapman fell in love
D E
Daddy passed away and the babies came
F#m7 B
And drama school was just too much
D Bm7
Now there's little league and mouths to feed
D Esus E
And I direct a kindergarten Christmas pageant
A
Life happened
Esus E
A Bm7
Curtis had an old Chevelle, the cops knew that car well
A D
He never lost a race on Windy Hollow road
A Bm7
By the time he turned eighteen he was the Georgia dirt track king
A D
Proudly sponsored by the local Texaco
F#m7 E D
I bumped into him at Murphy's bar and he ordered us a round
F#m7 E D
I said why aren't you in Rockingham chasing Gordon down
Bm7 Esus E
He killed his drink and tore the corners off his napkin
Chorus 2:
And said, life happened
I was driving home from Athens late one night
A trucker fell asleep and swapped paint with me
Said I rolled that'vette at least five times
Now I thank my stars and I sell used cars
And I teach driver's education at St. Catherine's
Yeah life happened
B C#m
D
I saw the rest of my old friends
At our reunion at the Holiday Inn
A E A B C#m
And it seemed like it was only yesterday
D
Standing in the gym in our cap and gown
A
Full of wonder, lust and glory bound
Bm7 C#m D
We set out to chase our dreams on wings of passion
Bm7 Esus E
But somewhere along the way we got distracted
Chorus 3:
Life happened
Our clothes went out of fashion with our songs
We started families and bought SUV's
Became step dads and soccer moms
I finally realized we turned alright
And we spent the night just catching up and dancing
And life happened
Ends on "A"
