Intro: G Cadd9 G Cadd9
G Cadd9
It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
G
It ain't worth a lot of money
Cadd9
And it damn sure ain't for sale
G Cadd9
The good lord only knows all the stories it could tell
G
My Granddaddy's gun
G Cadd9
He bought it new out of the Sears and Robuck catalog
G Cadd9
And it shot a many shells over the back of an old bird dog
G Cadd9
And it backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off
G
Granddaddy's gun.
Cadd9 G
It's just an old double barrel twelve
D Em7
The stock is cracked and it kick's like hell
Cadd9 G D
It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one
Cadd9 G
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder
D Em7
A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her
Cadd9 G D
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
Cadd9 G D
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
G
My Granddaddy's Gun
That old man gave it to me on the day I turned thirteen
With a half shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me
And Granddaddy's gun
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
It's just an old double barrel twelve
The stock was cracked and it kick's like hell
It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder
A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's Gun
Cadd9 G
There's a long beard hanging on the livin' room wall
D Cadd9 G D
That I got with a box call and Granddaddy's gun
Cadd9 G
There's a beat up sign out there on forty nine
D
That me and Billy Joe shot up one night
Cadd9 G D
With granddaddy's gun
G Cadd9
It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
G Cadd9
It ain't worth a lot of money but it damn sure ain't for sale
