Intro.: |(D) |(G) |(D)(A)|(D) |
At the (D)pond behind a double wide is where my (G)daddy raised me (D)up
I don't think a day went by without (A)whiskey in his (D)cup
He had a tendency to take it out it on me on the (G)days he had it (D)rough
But on the other ones, Lord it wasn't much, but to (G)me it (A)was enough (D)
(Chorus)
We'd (D/F#)go (G)fish, we donft (D) talk
Except (A)when our lines get (D) crossed
But I (D/F#)donft (G) care, ecause the (Bm)only love he (G)showed
Was at a (D)fishin' hole (A) with crickets and (D)cane poles
Solo: / / / |(G)(D)|(D)(A)|(D)
Now I'm (D)standing in the church house where I've (G)never been be-(D)fore
He never mustered up the courage to ever (A)walk me through those doors
Now I'm (D)standing in the pulpit (D/F#)reading my (G) dads eulogy
It's a (D)shame there ain't much good to say except the (A)times that meant most to (D)me
(Chorus)
When wefd (D/F#)go (G)fish, we donft (D) talk
Except (A)when our lines got (D) crossed
But I (D/F#)donft (G) care ecause the (Bm)only (A)love he (G)showed
Was at a (D)fishin' hole (A) with Crickets & (D)Cane Poles
Solo: / / / |(G)(D)|(D) |(A) |(D) |(G)(D)|(D)(A)|(D) |
(Bridge)
(Bm)Now I'm grown with a (A#)boy of my own, I'm gonna (A)raise him the right (G#)way
In a (G)church pew on Sunday after (A)every Saturday
(Chorus)
Even we'd (D/F#)go (G)fish and wefd (D) talk
And we'd just (A)laugh when our lines got (D) crossed
And I'll make (D/F#) damn (G) sure, he knows his (Bm)daddy's (A)love is (G)more
Than just a (D)fishin' hole (A) with crickets and (Bm)cane poles (A) (G)
(Tag)
More than just a (D)fishin hole (A) with crickets and (D)cane poles
