[Intro]
D    G    D    G

[Verse 1]
D
There we were, coming
 'round the bend
    G
One lap away from
 checkers in the wind
          D
Turn one, turn two, two three
               G
They never saw nothing
 like you and me
D
Down on the inside, 
leading the pack
     G
Your hand on my knee,
 my foot on the gas
D                   
Making moves upfront, 
       G
everybody was rooting for us

[Chorus]
   D             G        
We could've been Earnhardt
         A
 in that three car
D
Down in victory lane
                G   
Standin' on the hood 
           A
with that Goodwrench
D
Wasting good champagne
                 G       
We could've been burning 
              A
out 'stead of burning out
  Bm        A      G
Before that finish line
    D/F#       G     A  
But we were Daytona 499
D    G

[Verse 2]
         D
We had a hell of a lead, 
had it running good
    G
The whole grandstand 
was thinking we would
D
Take the whole thing home
      G
Yeah, girl, we were good as gone
   D
Lookin' back now,
 we were moving too fast
    G
Had plenty good tires,
 not enough gas
    D
The part that hurts the most
    G
Is, girl, we were so damn close

Most of the song cycles through G – A – D – G (IV – V – I – IV in D major). In solfa, that is fah – soh – doh – fah. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.
