[Intro 1]
[C][Em][F][G]
[C][Em][F][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Take a left her[Em]e boy[F], take it slo[G]w
[C]Don't get dis[Em]tracted by that
[F]radio[G]
[C]I just rolled my [Em]eyes
and I [F]said, "Daddy, I [G]know
I'm [C]fifteen, I [Em]ain't green
like some [F]ol' ten year [G]old"

[Chorus 1]
[C]What I wouldn't giv[Em]e to be six[F]teen,
[G]wild and free
[C]Cruisin' up and dow[Em]n
Main in my [F]F-150[G]
[C]Roll the windows dow[Em]n,
bass too [F]loud from this [G]burnt CD
[C]I'll be right whe[Em]re I wanna be
when I'm [F]sixteen, [G]sixteen
[C]Six[Em]teen,[F] y[G]eah
[C][Em][F][G]

[Verse 2]
[C]Now that I can dri[Em]ve, finally feel aliv[F]e
but I got [G]this curfew
[C]Sneakin' in lat[Em]e,
smelling like my [F]girlfriend's [G]perfume
[C]People talk abou[Em]t college
and know[F]ledge and that's [G]alright
But [C]all I'm think[Em]in' 'bout is an uns[F]upervised
[G]saturday night

[Chorus 2]
[C]What I wouldn't giv[Em]e to be eig[F]hteen,
[G]wild and free
[C]Buzzin' off a can[Em]
of the [F]Grizzly [G]Wintergreen
[C]Lookin' old enou[Em]gh
to pull [F]off this [G]fake ID
[C]I'll be right whe[Em]re I wanna be
When I'm [F]eighteen, [G]eighteen
[C]Eig[Em]hteen[F], [G]yeah
[C][Em][F][G]

[Bridge 1]
I'm [Am]old enough to smoke
I'm [F]old enough to vote
But they [C]turn me away
when I go to the [G]Cotton Eyed Joe
They say the [Am]grass is always greener
And [F]I believe that's right
But my [C]friends are off to Vegas,
they're [G]leavin' me behind

[Chorus 3]
[C]What I wouldn't giv[Em]e to be twenty [F]one,
[G]wild and free
[C]Open up a c[Em]old one
and [F]drink it [G]legally
[C]Chase a bunch of gir[Em]ls,
go see the [F]world
Let my [G]wild streak run
[C]I'll be right whe[Em]re I wanna be
When I'm [F]twenty one, [G]twenty one
[C][Em]
[F]Woah, [G]when I'm twenty one
[C][Em]
[F]Yeah, [G]when I'm twenty one,
[C]it'[Em]ll be alright
[F]Yeah, it'll all[G] be alright,
when I'm [C]twenty [Em]one[F][G]

[Outro 1]
[C]Now I'm twenty fiv[Em]e
and I'm drinking [F]wine
with my [G]wife at home
[C]Got a couple of dog[Em]s
and a couple of [F]songs
on the [G]radio
[C]And we sit arou[Em]nd and we laugh abo[F]ut
how we [G]used to be
[C]When all we [Em]cared about
was turning sixteen
