[Verse 1]
C9 G
Me and him was beatin' them banks
D G
Talkin' life or death, Fords or Chevrolets
C9 G
Said son we've got it made
D
Got a livewell full, a little sunshine, a little shade
C9 G
And I don't wanna go today
D
But when my time comes, man if I had it my way
[Chorus]
C9 G
I'm sittin' on a lake like glass
D G
Catchin' largemouth bass, just my boy and me
C9 G
Maybe on a fifty yard line
D
Watchin' Alabama beat the hell out of Tennessee
C9 G
Maybe on a front porch swing
D Em7
Somethin' cold to drink, mama's hand to hold
C9 D
Song on the radio
Would be a hell of a way to go
[Break]
C9 G D
[Verse 2]
C9 G
I remember thinkin' that day
D G
Couldn't picture him knowin' any other way
C9 G
Someday when I get old
D
I can only hope that when the good Lord calls me home
[Chorus]
C9 G
I'm sittin' on a lake like glass
D G
Catchin' largemouth bass, just my boy and me
C9 G
Maybe on a fifty yard line
D
Watchin' Alabama beat the hell out of Tennessee
C9 G
Maybe on a front porch swing
D Em7
Somethin' cold to drink, mama's hand to hold
C9 D
Song on the radio
Would be a hell of a way to go
[Break]
D
That would be a hell of a way to go
C9 G D
[Bridge]
C9 G D
No he wouldn't out fishin' on the day he died
But I bet by the time he closed his eyes
[Chorus]
C9 G
He was sittin' on a lake like glass
D G
Catchin' largemouth bass, just waitin' on me
C9 G
Maybe on a fifty yard line
D
Watchin' Alabama beat the shit out of Tennessee
C9 G
Maybe on a front porch swing
D Em7
Somethin' cold to drink, mama's hand to hold
C9 D
Song on the radio
C9 D
Yeah it might be this song on the radio
But be a hell of a way to go
[Outro]
D
That would be a hell of a way to go
