[Verse 1]
      G                D         Em    C
Daddy bought it at the auction in 1995
         G                 D         Em               C
Drove it forth and back to work, two hundred thousand miles
       G          D       Em            C
When I turned sixteen, he handed me the keys,
              G                 D                  Em              C
Thought I was Superman, shifter in my hand, livin' young, wild and free


[Chorus]
                    G          D                 Em               C
If this truck could talk, it'd tell you, all the things I made it do
                    G           D              Em                  C
If this truck could talk, it'll rant about the hell that it's been through
          G         D          Em           C     G        D
Spinnin' tires on a back road, stuck in the mud I put it into,
                Em       C
It'd tell me to walk, mmmmm, yeah if this truck could talk

[Verse 2]
    G             D              Em              C
Now me and Kelly Jean, drove the wheels off that truck
             G                         D                         Em              C
Yeah she was summertime fine, playin' "Strawberry Wine" with the speakers turned up
        G                         D                   Em                C
Now you know when a girl's in the passenger seat this boy's gonna show off
       G                       D                     Em                C
So I'd hammer on the gas, and go real fast, and we'd drive 'til we got lost


[Chorus]
                    G          D                 Em               C
If this truck could talk, it'd tell you, all the things I made it do
                    G           D              Em                  C
If this truck could talk, it'll rant about the hell that it's been through
          G         D          Em           C     G        D
Spinnin' tires on a back road, stuck in the mud I put it into,
                Em       C
It'd tell me to walk, mmmmm, yeah if this truck could talk

It's part of who I am, it's in my blood (Woah)
Em               C           G  D
Baptised in that Indiana mud


[Chorus]
                    G          D                 Em               C

If this truck could talk, it'll rant about the hell that it's been through
          G         D          Em           C     G        D
Spinnin' tires on a back road, stuck in the mud I put it into,
                Em       C
It'd tell me to walk, oohh, yeah if this truck could talk
