[Intro]

| Badd9 | Gb | Db | - |

[Verse 1]
Badd9                      Gb
     Me and him was beatin'  them banks
        Db
Talkin' life and death,
Fords and Chevrolets
Badd9                   Gb
     Said, "Son, we got it made"
           Db
"Got a live  well full,
little sunshine a little shade"
Badd9                   Gb
     I ain't ready to go  today
           Db
But when my  time comes and if I had it my way

[Chorus]
Badd9                    Gb
     I'd be sittin' on a lake like glass
         Db
Catchin' Largemouth Bass
        Ebm       Bbm
Just my boy and me
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a fiftyyard line
         Db
Watchin' Alabama whoop up on Tennessee
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a front porch swing
          Db
Somethin' cold to drink,
             Ebm         Bbm
your momma's hand to hold
Badd9          Gb
     And a song  on a radio,
Db                              Badd9 Gb Db
  would be a hell of a way to go

[Verse 2]
Badd9               Gb
     I remember thinkin' that day
Db
  I couldn't picture him goin' any other way
Badd9               Gb
     Some day when I  get old
      Db
I can only hope,
when the good Lord calls me home

[Chorus]
Badd9                    Gb
     I'd be sittin' on a lake like glass
         Db
Catchin' Largemouth Bass
        Ebm       Bbm
Just my boy and me
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a fiftyyard line
         Db
Watchin' Alabama whoop up on Tennessee
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a front porch swing
          Db
Somethin' cold to drink,
          Ebm         Bbm
my baby's hand to hold
Badd9          Gb
     And a song  on a radio,
Db                              Badd9
  would be a hell of a way to go

[Solo]
Gb Db                                   Badd9 Gb Db
     That would be a hell of a way to go

[Bridge]
Badd9
     No,
              Gb                        Db
he wasn't out fishin' on the day he died
But I bet about the time he closed his eyes

[Chorus]
Badd9                    Gb
     He was sittin' on a lake like glass
         Db
Catchin' Largemouth Bass
      Ebm       Bbm
Just awaitin' on   me
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a fiftyyard line
         Db
Watchin' 'Bama beat the hell out of Tennessee
Badd9              Gb
     Or maybe on a front porch swing
          Db
Somethin' cold to drink,
             Ebm         Bbm
your momma's hand to hold
Badd9          Gb
     And a song  on a radio,
Db                            Badd9
  that's a hell of a way to go

[Outro]
Gb Db
     Yeah, that's a hell of a way to go
