D A/C# D/F#
He said, "Son, hold it still, keep that beam shinin' straight"
Bm A G
He'd have a 9/16ths in one hand, workin' on that Chevrolet
D A/C# D/F#
It seemed like every Saturday soon as the sun went down
Bm A G
We'd be huddled under-neath that hood tinkering around
(Pre-Chorus)
Em A
And of all of the great memories I've had
Em G A
The best ones are those nights just me and my dad
D/F# G A D
He'll never how much he taught me out in that garage
G A Bm
And I guess the stuff that stuck was more about life than fixing cars
C Bm A
'Cause to this day I still can't make them run right
G Em F#m G A D
But I sure did learn a lot, just holding the flashlight
D A/C# D/F#
He told me a lot of stories about grandpa and the war
Bm A G
While he was trying to show me what a car-buretor's for
D A/C# D/F#
I learned a couple cuss words when he skinned his knuckles up
Bm A G
And I found out Momma was the only girl he ever really loved
(Pre-Chorus)
Em A
And of all of the great memories I've had
Em G A
The best ones are those nights just me and my dad
D/F# G A D
He'll never how much he taught me out in that garage
G A Bm
And I guess the stuff that stuck was more about life than fixing cars
C Bm A
'Cause to this day I still can't make them run right
G Em F#m G A D
But I sure did learn a lot, just holding the flashlight
C Bm A
And to this day I still can't make them run right
Bm C Bm A
But deep in-side I know that it's alright
G Em F#m G A
'Cause I sure did learn a lot
D
Just holding the flashlight
