I wrote this with David Reuter. He had a lot of it already, but just couldn't finish it. He asked me to step in and help. Here is what we came up with.

Story behind the song
David grew up in Pennsylvania around covered bridges like the one in the song. He had a lot of it together, but just couldn't finish it. I told him to come get me when he got stuck...well, he got stuck so we finished it last night. Thanks for viewing and listening.
Lyrics
Where He019d Wanna Be
2009 Curt Collins, David Reuter
There019s an old red wooden covered bridge that crosses roaring creek
Where my grandpa tied a rope swing to the rafter019s underneath
And on every hot Summer day you could bet
That019s where he019d wanna be
He said he met my Grandma there in July of 01943
You can still see where he carved I Love You Jenny in a tree
She swam there every day so you can bet
That019s where he019d wanna be
For sixty five years he held her hand
01CThrough richer and poorer01D past good times and bad
Sometimes a first love is the last one you ever need
She could be stubborn and he had his pride
But through everything they stood side by side
018Cause that was always where he019d wanna be
There a white church right outside of town that needs a coat of paint
Where my Grandpa said I do in June of 01848
The bride arrived a little late but she knew
That019s where he019d wanna be
For sixty five years he held her hand
01CThrough richer and poorer01D past good times and bad
Sometimes a first love is the last one you ever need
She could be stubborn and he had his pride
But through everything they stood side by side
018Cause that was always where he019d wanna be
Grandma passed away last May and he hadn019t been the same
He visits her every afternoon but he019s countin019 the days
018Till he019s right back by her side cause you can bet
That019s where he019d wanna be
For sixty five years he held her hand
01CThrough richer and poorer01D past good times and bad
Sometimes a first love is the last one you ever need
She could be stubborn and he had his pride
But through everything they stood side by side
018Cause that was always where he019d wanna be
