Luke Bryan - Tackle Box
Capo 1
Verse 1
D MajorD
It was two shades of brown and scratched up plastic.
G+G
It held extra line, lures, hooks, and matches.
A augmentedA
With his last name engraved in black,
G+G D MajorD
Right there by the handle on the top.
D MajorD
I'd slide it out of the back of his station wagon.
G+G
Lug it down the bank with my arm draggin'.
A augmentedA
I could hardly wait for him
G+G D MajorD
To lift the lid on that tackle box.
Chorus 1
G+G D MajorD
Cause I'd sail with across the South Pacific.
A augmentedA D MajorD
Stand beside him on the bow of that battle ship.
G+G D MajorD
See him kiss the ground and thank the Good Lord Jesus.
A augmentedA B minorBm
And watch him run to Grandma, cryin' on the dock.
E minorEm G+G
He opened up, every time he opened up
A augmentedA D MajorD
That ole tackle box.
Verse 2
D MajorD
He'd bait my hook and keep on tellin' stories
G+G
About nickel Cokes, girls, and sandlot glories.
A augmentedA
Pickup trucks and golden fields
G+G D MajorD
Long before this town knew blacktop.
Chorus 2
G+G D MajorD
I was almost ridin' with him shotgun down those dirt roads
A augmentedA D MajorD
Takin' turns on a jug of homemade shine
G+G D MajorD
As he raced his buddies down through Mason Holler
A augmentedA B minorBm
Fillin' the sky with dust and kicked up rocks
E minorEm G+G
He opened up every time he opened up
A augmentedA D MajorD
That ole tackle box.
Bridge
B minorBm G+G
He's been gone twenty years tomorrow
D MajorD A augmentedA
But I'm still holdin' on to one more wish
B minorBm G+G
That God above would let be borrow Grandpa
D MajorD G+G A augmentedA
For one more afternoon and one more fish.
Chorus 1

Cause I'd sail with across the South Pacific.

And watch him run to Grandma, cryin' on the dock.

He opened up, every time he opened up
A augmentedA D MajorD
That ole tackle box.

Everything he loved, he kept locked up

In that ole tackle box.
