Verse :
G+G FF
He taught me how to drive a Massey
G+G FF
How to work a clutch and keep it straight
G minorGm C majorC G+G
Wore the gold off a wedding band
FF C majorC
Only loved one woman to her last day
G+G FF
Saturdays we're checking trout lines
G+G FF
And catfish sermons in a Jon boat
G minorGm C majorC
Talking girls and talking life
FF C majorC
And laughing at all his clean bad jokes
Pre-Chorus:
C minorCm G+G
He was Superman in overalls
FF
At least that's what I thought
Chorus:
G+G FF
Now he's up there with the angels
G+G FF
And the good lord by his side
G minorGm C majorC
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry
FF C majorC
Still wishing for a little more time
G+G FF
He was gentle he was strong
G+G FF
And when he passed he passed it on
C minorCm
More than that money in his pocket
G+G FF
That truck that he bought us back in 1989
C minorCm
More than that field fulla cotton
G+G FF
He's gone not forgotten we mighta said goodbye
FF
But a small town man's legacy never dies
G+G FF
