[Verse 1]
B C#
You sent me to the shed with a haul of tools
B E
Well I remember how you said that I could take what I could use
B C#
I got a hammer and a ratchet set
E
B hundred tools I ain't used yet
G#m F# E
Well they're rusty, but they work as good as new
B C# E Em F#
Tools, tools
[Verse 2]
B E
Well I remember you as quiet as a picture
B E
Like that picture of the Navy sailor grinning for the girls
B C#
You had visited the barber
E
You were stationed at Pearl Harbor
G#m F# E
B year before the War became the world's
[Chorus]
F# D# G#m
And you say, "Boy, sometimes you've got to get up on that ship
F# E
Leave all you love behind."
F# D#
Well, Grampa, I've been everywhere
G#m B/G#
But Fargo, North Dakota
E F#
It ain't war, but it's a fight
B G#m E F#
Tools, tools
[Verse 3]
B E
Well, I never knew you ever drew one picture
B
But if you want proof that I've got you
E
Here running through my veins
B C#
I could show you call the sketchbooks
E
That I filled when I was young
G#m F# E
And sixty years ago you did the same
[Chorus]
F# D#
And you say, "Boy, just let 'em laugh
G#m
When all they see is lines--
F# E
Paint yourself a picture of your life
F# D#
I believe that Swedish folks were
G#m
Born with better eyes."
E F#
Grampa, I have always loved the sky
B C#
I think you're right
E F#
You gave me tools
[Bridge]
E B
You sent that telegraph to tell her that you missed her
E F# G#m
When my daddy was a baby, oh you gave him to the Lord
F# D# G#m B E
And the faith you handed down has somehow stuck around
E
And love has called you home again
Em F#
To roam again no more
[Verse 4]
B C#
You sent me to the shed with a haul of tools
B E
Well I remember how you said that I could take what I could use
B C# E
Faith and Love and Hope are what I carried home
G#m F# E
They're rusty but they work as good as new
B C# E Em F# B
