[Verse 1]
[M]
Parked that old truck
On the pine-lined bend
Lake caught the moon
Like a silver friend
Mud on my boots
Rain on the glass
You walked up smiling
Slow as a summer pass
[Pre-Chorus]
[F]
Mountains stood back
Like they knew your name
Trees leaned in close
When the thunder came
You said, "Stay here
Let the storm roll through"
I said, "If you're here
I got time for you"
[Chorus]
[M]
Girl by the lake
Girl by the lake
You took my hand
Made my heart wake
[F]
Truck by the lake
Truck by the lake
We kissed in the rain
On that dirt road wake
[Together]
Girl by the lake
Truck by the lake
I found my home
In the way you shake (hey)
[Verse 2]
[F]
Your old truck bed
Had a blanket laid
Wet dog hair
And a faded chain
You laughed real low
At my muddy dress
Said, "You look like heaven
When you're a mess"
[M]
So I pulled you close
By the tailgate light
Rain kept falling
Till the edge of night
Your name on my tongue
Like a prayer I knew
And every road I drove
Led me straight to you
[Pre-Chorus]
[F]
Mountains stood back
Like they knew your name
Trees leaned in close
When the thunder came
You said, "Stay here
Let the storm roll through"
I said, "If you're here
I got time for you"
[Chorus]
[M]
Girl by the lake
Girl by the lake
You took my hand
Made my heart wake
[F]
Truck by the lake
Truck by the lake
We kissed in the rain
On that dirt road wake
[Together]
Girl by the lake
Truck by the lake
I found my home
In the way you shake (hey)
[Bridge]
[M]
If the river runs high
And the road turns hard
[F]
I'll meet you there
By the falling stars
[M]
Under those trees
Where the cold wind sways
[F]
You and me, baby
We can weather all days
[Final Chorus]
[Together]
Girl by the lake
Girl by the lake
You took my hand
Made my heart wake
Truck by the lake
Truck by the lake
We kissed in the rain
On that dirt road wake
Girl by the lake
Truck by the lake
I found my home
In the way you shake (hey)
