THIS ONE'S FOR PAPAW
 
[Intro]
A E B C#m7 A
 
[Verse]
E
Out of all the songs I wrote
B
'Bout this life I know
C#m7
Gravel roads and flat bottom boats
A
Hell, there must be a thousand of 'em

It dawned on me yesterday (just yesterday)

That I ain't never dedicated many of 'em to you
A
It's time I do
 
[Chorus]
E
So let's talk to papaw
B
Hand 'em down old overalls
C#m7
Yeah, this is for the deer we killed
A
And all the fish we caught
 
E
I'm talking trout lines and good times
Bsus4 B
Deer dogs shaking limbs off the pines
C#m7
Hell, we'd laugh until we'd cried
A
I'm glad that you were mine, damn right
E
This one's for papaw
 
[Verse]
E
Had your tractor
B C#m7
Had your Chevy sitting in the driveway
A
It could be drove but I can't even look that way
 
E
You're everywhere I look
B
It's gonna take a long time to adjust
C#m7
Yeah, I'll take care of nanny
A
But for now I got to step in
 
[Chorus]
E
So let's talk to papaw
B bsus4 B
And them damn old overalls
