Flashlight

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

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

(Chorus)
D/F#  G                           
He'll never how much he taught me 
A                 D
out in that garage
      G                            
And I guess the stuff that stuck 
             A                    Bm
was more about life than fixing cars
          C          Bm        
'Cause to this day I still can't 
            A
make them run right

But I sure did learn a lot, just
 A           D
 holding the flashlight

Inst.: Em/D A/D D

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

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

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

G A D G G A Bm

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

                 D
