Montgomery Gentry
"Back When I Knew it All"
Back When I Knew It All, 2008
Songwriters: Trent Willmon, Phil O'Donnell & Gary Hannan
Tabbed by Dan Pera


In some of the lines in the verses, the G after the Em is optional.
In the recorded track, it's just an Em, but when you're playing it solo,
it sounds better to play the G after. This is also true for the
asterisked A chords in the verses.


Intro: D A Em G
       D A G

VERSE 1

D               A      Em  G       
At the ripe old age of nineteen
           D         A       Em    G*
I bought a short bed pickup chicks machine
D           A        Em  G
Life ran on beer and gasoline
G                         A*
A half a lap ahead of the law
D             A             Em   G
I had a fake ID that got me into Tuffy’s
D          A      Em          G*
Love was a word I used to get lucky
D               A           Em     G
Was a big time spender with that plastic money
            A
Back when I knew it all


CHORUS:

D    A        Em        G
Back when the world was flat and                                      
D        A            Em     G
Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue
D    A      Em        G                               A
Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof                      
G         D/F#             Em                    D/F#
Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when 
     G
I got ticked off
G                         A
Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all


D A Em G
D A G


VERSE 2

D                  A           Em         G
I found out credit cards don't mean you're rich
    D        A    Em       G
And beer and gasoline don't mix
D              A      Em           G*
Yeah step side trucks can't jump a ditch
G                                     A*
And those "big house" rooms sure are small
                  D         A               Em        G
I've learned that love is a woman that will settle you down
D        A          Em   G*
A Sunday sermon can turn life around
D           A               Em          G 
Man I can't believe all the answers I've found
                      A
Since ....back when I knew it all


D    A        Em        G
Back when the world was flat and                                      
D        A            Em     G
Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue
D    A      Em         G                              A
Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof                      
G         D/F#             Em                    D/F#
Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when 
     G
I got ticked off
G                         A
Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all

BRIDGE:

Em
I've done some growing up
D/F#
And I'm still growing up
G                          A
So I know I'll never be as smart as I once was
       D
That was back.......

D    A        Em        G
Back when the world was flat and                                      
D        A            Em     G
Mama and Daddy didn't have a clue
D    A      Em         G                              A
Back when a pitcher of beer and a couple shots made me bulletproof                      
G         D/F#             Em                    D/F#
Back when God was a name I used in vain to get a point across when 
      G
I got ticked off
G                         A
Lord I'm learning so much more...than back when I knew it all

sounds great

Sounds better with the "optional" G chords.
