Granddaddys Gun

• E

Capo 2  

     E                           A5  
It sits above the mantle, on a couple rusty nails,  
          E                          A5 
It aint worth a lot of money, and it damn sure aint for sale  
      B5                           A5 
The good lord only knows all the stories it could tell,  
               E 
Granddaddy's gun  
    E                                  A5 
He bought it new out of the sears and robuck catalog 
        E                           A5 
And it shot a many shells over the back of an old bird dog 
        B5                                  A5 
And it backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off 
                E  
Granddaddy's gun. 

Chorus 
       A5                E 
It's just an old double barrel twelve 
      B5                     C#5 
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell 
     A5                    E            B5 
It wouldn't mean what it means to me to no one 
              A5                         E 
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder 
   B5                         C#5 
A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her 
     A5                   E                B5 
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt 
      A5                     E                 B5 
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson  
                    E    A  
My Granddaddy's Gun 


          E                        A5 
That old man gave it to me on the day I turned thirteen 
         E                            A5 
With a half shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean 
    B5                                A5 
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me 
                   E 
And Granddaddy's gun 


Chorus 
       A5                E 
It's just an old double barrel twelve 
      B5                     C#5 
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell 
     A5                    E            B5 
It wouldn't mean what it means to me to no one 
              A5                         E 
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder 
   B5                         C#5 
A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her 
     A5                   E                B5 
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt 
      A5                     E                 B5 
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson  
                    E    A  
My Granddaddy's Gun 

solo  
            A5                        E 
There's a long beard hanging on the livin' room wall 
        B5           C#5         A5          E B5 
That I got with a box call and Granddaddy's gun 
           A5                     E 
There's a shot up sign out there on forty nine 
      B5                    C#5  
That me and billy joe shot up one night 
    A5            E  B5 
With granddaddy's gun  

     E                          A5 
It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails 
          E                           A5 
It aint worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale
