Capo 4
[G]Every day I drive to work [Cadd9]across Flint River bridge
A [G]hundred yards from the spot where [Cadd9]me and grandpa fished
There's a p[D/F]iece of his old fruit stand on the [Cadd9]side of Sawmill Road
He'[D/F]d be there peelin' peaches if it was[Cadd9] twenty years ago
[Bm7] And what I wouldn'[Cadd9]t give
[Bm7]To ride around in that old truck with[Cadd9] him[D/F]
If[G] heaven wasn't so far away
I'd [Cadd9]pack up the kids and go for the day
Int[D/F]roduce them to their grandpa
Watc[Cadd9]h 'em laugh at the way he talks
[G]Find my long lost cousin John
The [Cadd9]one we left back in Vietnam
S[D/F]how him a picture of his daughter now
S[Cadd9]he's a doctor and he'd be proud
T[Em7]hen tell him we'd be[D/F] back in a coupl[Cadd9]e of days
In the r[Em7]ear view mirror [D/F]we'd all watch 'em [Cadd9]wave
Yeah l[Em7]osing them wouldn't [D/F]be so hard to [Cadd9]take

[G]I'd hug all three of those girls we lost from the [Cadd9]class of '99
[G]And I'd find my bird dog Bo and take him [Cadd9]huntin' one more time
I'd [D/F]ask Hank why he took those pills [Cadd9]back in '53
And [D/F]Janis to sing the second verse of [Cadd9]"Me and Bobby McGee"
[Bm7]Sit on a cloud and [Cadd9]visit for a while
It'd [Bm7]do me good just to see them[Cadd9] smile[D/F]
I[G]f heaven wasn't so far away
I'd [Cadd9]pack up the kids and go for the day
Int[D/F]roduce them to their grandpa
Watc[Cadd9]h 'em laugh at the way he talks
[G]Find my long lost cousin John
The [Cadd9]one we left back in Vietnam
S[D/F]how him a picture of his daughter now
S[Cadd9]he's a doctor and he'd be proud
T[Em7]hen tell him we'd be[D/F] back in a couple of [Cadd9]days
In the r[Em7]ear view mirror [D/F]we'd all watch 'em [Cadd9]wave
Yeah l[Em7]osing them wouldn't [D/F]be so hard to [Cadd9]take
If [Cadd9]heaven wasn't so [D/F]far
If [Cadd9]heaven wasn't so [D/F]far
