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