Intro.:  D Em/D A/D D x2 
   D                                    A/C#                  D/F# 
He said, "Son, hold it still, keep that beam shinin' straight" 
            Bm         A                 G 
He'd have a 9/16ths in one hand, workin' on that Chevrolet 
   D                               A/C#                D/F# 
It seemed like every Saturday soon as the sun went down 
        Bm            A               G 
We'd be huddled under-neath that hood tinkering around 

(Pre-Chorus) 
       Em                             A 
And of all of the great memories I've had 
    Em                  G           A 
The best ones are those nights just me and my dad 


D/F#  G                           A                 D 
He'll never how much he taught me out in that garage 
      G                                         A                    Bm 
And I guess the stuff that stuck was more about life than fixing cars 
          C          Bm                    A 
'Cause to this day I still can't make them run right 
G     Em       F#m          G    A           D 
But I sure did learn a lot, just holding the flashlight 


Inst.: Em/D A/D D 

   D                              A/C#               D/F# 
He told me a lot of stories about grandpa and the war 
      Bm               A                  G 
While he was trying to show me what a car-buretor's for 
D                                     A/C#                   D/F# 
I learned a couple cuss words when he skinned his knuckles up 
      Bm                      A            G 
And I found out Momma was the only girl he ever really loved 

(Pre-Chorus) 
       Em                             A 
And of all of the great memories I've had 
    Em                  G           A 
The best ones are those nights just me and my dad 

D/F#  G                           A                 D 
He'll never how much he taught me out in that garage 
      G                                         A                    Bm 
And I guess the stuff that stuck was more about life than fixing cars 
          C          Bm                    A 
'Cause to this day I still can't make them run right 
G     Em       F#m          G    A           D 
But I sure did learn a lot, just holding the flashlight 



G A D G G A Bm 

       C          Bm                    A 
And to this day I still can't make them run right 
         Bm C      Bm             A 
But deep in-side I know that it's alright 
G        Em       F#m         G G A A 
'Cause I sure did learn a lot 
                 D 
Just holding the flashlight
