Blake Shelton, "Granddaddy's Gun"
(intro)
Ab Db,
(verse)
[Ab]It sits above the mantle upon a couple rusty nails
And it's [Db]worth a bunch of money but it damn sure ain't for sale
The [Eb]good Lord only knows all the [Bbm]stories it could tell
Granddaddy's [Ab]gun
(verse)
He [Ab]bought it new out of a Sears & Roebuck catalog
And it [Db]shot a many shell over the top of an old bird dog
And it [Eb]backed a burglar down when grandma [Bbm]took the safety off
Granddaddy's [Ab]gun
(chorus)
It's [Db]just a double [Ab]barrel 12
The [Eb]stock is cracked and it [Fm]kicks like hell
It [Db]wouldn't mean what it [Ab]means to me to [Eb]no one
I can [Db]hear his voice when I [Ab]put it to my shoulder
"A [Eb]gun's like a woman, son it's [Fm]all how you hold her"
He [Db]taught me a whole lot [Ab]more than how to [Eb]hunt
And [Db]one of these days I'll [Ab]pass it on to my [Eb]son
Granddaddy's [Ab]gun[Db]
(verse)
He [Ab]handed it to me on the day I turned 13
With a [Db]half-shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean
I [Eb]keep a picture in the case of that [Db]sweet old man and me
With granddaddy's [Ab]gun
(chorus)
It's [Db]just a double [Ab]barrel 12
The [Eb]stock is cracked and it [Fm]kicks like hell
It [Db]wouldn't mean what it [Ab]means to me to [Eb]no one
I can [Db]hear his voice when I [Ab]put it to my shoulder
"A [Eb]gun's like a woman, son it's [Fm]all how you hold her"
He [Db]taught me a whole lot [Ab]more than how to [Eb]hunt
And [Db]one of these days I'll [Ab]pass it on to my [Eb]son
Db Ab Eb,
Granddaddy's gun
(verse-out)
There's a [Db]long beard living on the [Ab]living room wall
That [Eb]I got with a box call[Db]
And granddaddy's [Ab]gun[Eb]
There's a [Db]shot up stop sign on [Ab]49
That [Eb]me and Billy Joe took out one night[Dd]
With granddaddy's [Ab]gun[Eb]
Dd Ab Eb,
Granddaddy's gun
It [Ab]sits above the mantle on a couple rusty nails
And it's [Db]worth a bunch of money but it damn sure ain't for sale
