Another Mans Gold

       F          C        
I was watchin? cartoons on a 
   G       C
Saturday morning
       F           (G)       C
And I heard daddy start the truck
        F                         
I came runnin? from the house and 
C
waved him down
             G                  
Cause he was makin? a run to the 
  C
dump


F                                
We watched the Bears and licked ice 
C
cream cones
F                     C
Take a little walk around
F                         Am
I?ll never forget what my daddy said
           G                       
The day we pulled that bike from 
   C
the ground


                   F               
He said one man?s trash is another 
       C
man?s gold
         F                      
If it?s thrown away it?s free to 
  C
take
         Am                    G
A little oil she?ll be good to go
               F
So I rode that bicycle home
                  G
Thumbs up, daddy honkin? on the horn


         F         C          
I got my first job workin? on a 
  G      C
dairy farm
        F          (G)       C
Drivin? tractor and bailin? hay

            F               C
I?d have to circle around a bog in 
the ground
             G            C
Where sat an old Mustang ?58

    F                     C
One evenin? I asked that farmer
          F                     C
Why that car was just wastin? away
                F                  
He said you can have it for free it
                       Am
 don?t mean nothin? to me
    G                   C
And I couldn?t help but think

          F                     
One man?s trash is another man?s 
  C
gold
                   F             
What someone will throw away is a 
         C
crying shame
      Am                 G
So I towed that Mustang home
                    F
Till she could be restored
                      G
I got that engine to roar

And boy did that engine roar

(Instrumental Break)

          F              C      G
It was an awkward blind date we 
        C
met at a park
            F            (G)  
She had her little girl taggin? 
    C
along
    F                           C
Her beautiful smile hadn?t been out 
in a while
          G                   C
She was a hard working single mom

     F                  C
In time I learned he?d left her
          F                 C
He said ?I?m just way too young
      F                      Am
To be having a kid, I?m not ready 
for this
        G                   C
If you keep it I?m good as gone?

                 F                 
He never looked back as she watched
     C
 him go
                 F                 
She stood there crying in the rain 
          C
till one January day
           G
She had a beautiful baby girl
            C                      
Tonight I tuck her in and read her 
 F
stories
             Am             (G)   
And hold her mama while the sunset
    F
 glows
             C     G              
My two arms full       of this 
    C
man?s gold
                   F               
What some men will throw away is a 
C
crying shame
            Am       (G)     F
Those girls make our house a home
              G
Yeah my cup overflows
                  F
With this man?s gold
             C
This man?s gold
