D                        D7
Son, you make me feel so proud
G                            G7    G7 C
Pop the bottons right off my shirt
D
I know I promised to take you to the lake today
                      A                   G                   D
But I'm gonna have to break that promise, and it really hurts

D              D7         G
Everytime I go fishin' it alway starts me wishin'
A            G    G7    D
That I could be a child again
        G               C       D
Take my fifty cents and go down to the local picture show
E7                          A    A7
To watch my heroes rope and ride
     D                     D7                   G             D
Most times they'd win, but when they'd lose it always made me cry
      G                D                    A      D
Ain't nothin' quite as sad as watchin' your heroes die
       F#7              G                   Em     A         D
One by one, and as they fall, soon there'll be no heroes at all

Solo:
D  D7   G  G7  G7 C  D  A  G  D

Verse:
D                      D7
Well I guess the fish just ain't bitin'
G                                                  A
And just as well 'cause I don't feel like fightin'
                   A7                         D    G
All in all it just ain't that great a fishin' day
                   C        D                                           E7
That old newspaper headline  kinda wrapped around this old heart of mine
                    A    A7
Another big one got away

      D                          D7                      G                 D
And I can't count the times he's made me laugh, but this time he's made me cry
                G                D                    A      D
And there ain't nothin' quite as sad as watchin' your heroes die
       F#7        G                     Em    A         D
One by one, as they fall, soon there'll be no heroes at all
