verse 1 
G                                       D 
I was sittin’ In the back of his pickup truck 
G 
He hadn’t made it out, well just my luck, 
             C                                               G 
But when he finally walked out the door, I couldn’t help but smile 
G 
He taught me how to tie up tight, 
G 
And we’d be leavin’ out before daylight 
      C                                             G 
I was just up the road, but it felt like a hundered miles 
     D 
Then he handed me an old cane pole, 
D 
We headed out to his fishin‘ hole.

Then we put our lines down in the water, and we waited for the fish to bite, 
         C                     D                            G                       G7 
Yeah, we talked about God, and talked about living, there‘s times we would talk all night

Well you know if you didn‘t have time to go, he’d tell you it would be a sin, 
C                  D                    G 
How I’d love to go fishin‘ with Grandpa again
