G C
We loaded up my old stationwagon
D G
With a tent a coleman and sleepin' bags
C
Some fishin' poles a cooler of cokes
D G
Three days before we had to be back
Am D
When you're seven you're in seventh heaven
G
When you're going campin' in the wild outdoors
Am C
As we turned off on that old dirt road
Am D
He looked at me and swore…

G D C Am
Dad, this could be the best day of my life
D C G D
I've been dreamin' day and night about the fun we'll have
G Em C Am
Just me and you doing what I've always wanted to
C Am D G
I'm the luckiest boy alive this is the best day of my life.
G C
His fifteenth birthday rolled around
D G
Classic cars were his thing
C
When I pulled in the drive with that old Vette
D G
I thought that boy would go insane
Am
When you're in your teens
D G
Your dreams revolve around four spinnin' wheels
Am C
We worked nights on end till it was new again
Am D
And as he sat behind the wheel…
(repeat Chorus)
C Am D G
Standin' in a little room in back of the church with our tux's on
C Am D
Lookin' at him I say, I can't believe son that you're grown…

G D C Am
He said Dad, this could be the best day of my life
D C G D
I've been dreamin' day and night of being like you
G Em C Am
Now it's me and her watchin' you and Mom I've learned
C Am D G
I'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life
C Am D G
I'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life.
