Verse 1:
       D
At the pond behind the double-wide
            G               D
Is where my daddy raised me up
                                     A              D
I don't think a day went by without whiskey in his cup

He had a tendency to take it out on me on
     G              D
the days he had it rough
                                              G     A         D
But on the other ones, it wasn't much, but to me it was enough


Chorus:
         G
We'd go fish
         D
We don't talk
       A                   D
Except when our lines get crossed
            G
But I don't care
            Bm           G
'Cause the only love he showed
          D
Was at a fishin' hole
 A                 D
With crickets and cane poles


Solo:
G D A D


Verse 2:
         D
Now I'm standin' in a church house
            G            D
Where I've never been before
                                          A
He never mustered up the courage to ever walk me through those doors
         D                              G
Now I'm standin' in a pulpit readin' my Dad's eulogy
              D
Well, it's a shame there ain't much good to say
            A                       D
Except the times that meant most to me


Chorus:
         G
We'd go fish
         D
We don't talk
       A                   D
Except when our lines get crossed
            G
But I don't care
            Bm           G
'Cause the only love he showed
          D
Was at a fishin' hole
 A                 D
With crickets and cane poles


Solo:
G D A D G D A D


Bridge:
Bm
Now I'm grown with a boy of my own
           A                  G#
I'm gonna raise him the right way
      G                           A
In a church pew on Sunday, after every Saturday


Chorus:
              G
When we'd go fish
        D
And we talk
         A                        D
We just laugh when our lines get crossed
                    G
And I'll make damn sure
              Bm      A       G
He knows his daddy's love is more
             D
Than just a fishin' hole
A                  Bm       A G
With crickets and cane poles
                  D
More than just a fishin' hole
A                  D
With crickets and cane poles
