For A Boat

C
Everything I learned about life
  G
I learned out on that bank
     Am
From gettin' up early, comin' 
up empty
    C                  G
And good things come to those that 
wait
Am
Money doesn't grow on trees
                  F
The difference in talking and 
shootin' the breeze

[Chorus]
C
I remember thinkin', wouldn't it be 
cool
           Am
To have an old flat bottom and an 
Evinrude?
    F                             
And Daddy saying, "Son, don't they
C                     G
 bite just fine right here?"
          C
He'd say, "Love what you got, buddy,
 not what you ain't"
Am
And just about then that bobber 
would sink
F                             
And that outboard dream of mine 
            G
would disappear
Am                        G      
I grew up pretty lucky as far as 
      F
lucky goes

F               C
Too broke for a boat

[Verse 2]
C
He could've picked up an extra shift
G
Or a weekend at the factory
Am
But every Sunday was saved for Jesus
C                            G
And Saturdays, he spent with me
Am
'Til that summer would fall
         F
I didn't know we had it all

[Chorus]
C
I remember thinkin', wouldn't it be 
cool
           Am
To have an old flat bottom and an 
Evinrude?
    F                              
And Daddy saying, "Son, don't they 
C                    G
bite just fine right here?"
           C
He'd say, "Love what you got, buddy,
 not what you ain't"

And just about then that bobber

F

Am                        G      
I grew up pretty lucky as far as 
      F
lucky goes
F               C
Too broke for a boat
F               C
Too broke for a boat
