LYRICS
(Bb)Ev ’ry day I drive to work a cross Flint Riv er Bridge
a (Bb)hun dred yards from the spot where (Eb)me and Grand pa fished.
There’s a (F)piece of his old fruit stand on the side of Saw mill Road.
He’d (F)be there peel in’ peach es if it was twen ty years a go.
And what I would n’t give
to (Dm)ride a round in that old truck with him.
If (Bb)heav en was n’t so far a way, I’d (Eb)pack up the kids and go for the day.
(F)In tro duce ’em to their grand pa; (Eb)watch ’em laugh at the way he talked.
(Bb)Find my long lost cous in John, the (Eb)one we left back in Vi et nam.
