• Capo on 1st

🎸 Intro:

D    G    D    G

🎸 Verse:
                      D
I knew he loved his whiskey
                     G
I knew he loved his wine
            D
But I was never quite sure if he loved me
       A
And I always wondered why
                   D
I didn’t want his money
                           G
Lord knows he didn’t have much
              D
Maybe this guitar he gave me
     A                      D
Was his “I believe in you son”

🎸 Chorus:
                 G                              D
I didn’t get forgiveness for the smallest of things
           G                                   A
But I got who he was and who I didn’t want to be
          D                              G
God I’m thankful for the beauty in the mess
                  Em
I wouldn’t be the man I am today
    G           A           D
I guess that’s my inheritance

🎸 Interlude:
D    G






🎸 Verse:
                     D
There ain’t much of nothin’
               G
That I didn’t try
             D
Looking for love in every wrong place
                A
Didn’t make it right
               D
I hurt a lot people
                    G
‘Cause hurt people hurt
            D                      A                   D
And sayin’ sorry when you’re not sorry man it never works

🎸 Chorus:
                 G                              D
I didn’t get forgiveness for the smallest of things
           G                                   A
But I got who he was and who I didn’t want to be
          D                              G
God I’m thankful for the beauty in the mess
                  Em
I wouldn’t be the man I am today
    G           A           D
I guess that’s my inheritance

🎸 Instrumental:
D    G    D    A


🎸 Bridge:
                    D
I ran like hell to Jesus
                          G
Didn’t know what else to do
                   D
He showed me his hands
                                  A
And He said, “Son I did this for you”
                 Bm                A      G
And you’ll be a daddy like you never knew
                G            A                D
‘Cause I take broken things  and make ‘em new

🎸 Chorus:
            G                            D
I got forgiveness for the smallest of things
       G                              A
I got who He was and who I wanted to be
          D                               G
God I’m thankful you saw beauty in this mess
                Em
It made me the man I am today
    G           A           D    G
I guess that’s my inheritance
                 D     G    D
That’s my inheritance
