Intro: Bass drum then C5(x20)
I don't know too much a-about too much of my old man
I know he walked right the door we never saw him again
Last I heard he was at the bar do-in' himself in I know
F5 G5--->let ring
I got the same disease, I guess I got that from him
Pre-chorus
This is story of my old man, Just like his father before him
F5(let ring)
I'm telling you do any thing you, can so you don't end up just like them
Like Them
Chorus
Monday he woke up and hated life,
Drank until Wednesday and left his wife,
Thursday through Saturday lost every thing,
C Am F5 N.C(no chords)
Woke up on Sunday mis-'r-able again
(same chords as ver 1)
I remember baseball games ,And working on the car
He told that he loved me
And that I would go far
Showed me how to work hard and
Stick up for myself
I wish he wasn't too hard
To listen to himself..
