[Verse]
F#
For the longest time, I guess I thought he didn't give a damn
C# A#m G#
Hard to read, hard to please, yeah, that was my old man
F#
On the day I left for college, it was nothing new
F#m G#
We never had that heart-to-heart, he had too much to do
[Chorus]
A#m F#
He checked the air in my tires, the belts and all the spark plug wires
C# D#m F# G#
Said, "When the hell's the last time, you had this oil changed"
A#m F#
And as I pulled out the drive, he said, "Be sure and call your mom sometime"
C# G#
And I didn't hear it then, but I hear it now
D#m Fm F#
He was sayin', "I love you"
G# F# F# F# F# F#m F#m G# G#
The only way he knew how | | | | | | |
F#
G# hundred twenty thousand miles, six years down the road
C# A#m G#
G# brand new life and a brand new wife, we'd just bought our first home
F#
When he finally came to visit, I thought he'd be so proud
F#m G#
He never said he liked the place, he just got his tool belt out
[Chorus]
A#m F#
And put new locks on the doors, went back and forth to the hardware store
C# D#m F# G#
Said, "Come and hold this flashlight," as he crawled beneath the sink
A#m F#
And "These old wires ain't up to code" and "That circuit box is gonna overload"
C# G#
And I didn't hear it then, but I hear it now
D#m Fm F#
He was sayin', "I love you"
G# C#
The only way he knew how
E
Last Sunday, we all gathered for his sixty fifth birthday
B
And I knew he'd stiffen up, but I hugged him anyway
E
When it was finally time to say goodbye, I knew what was next
D#m G#
Just like he always does, right before we left
[Chorus]
A#m F#
He checked the air in my tires, the belts and all the spark plug wires
C# D#m F# G#
Said, "When the hell's the last time, you had this oil changed"
A#m F#
And as I pulled out the drive, he said, "Be sure and call your mom sometime"
C# G#
And I didn't hear it then, but I hear it now
D#m Fm F#
He was sayin', "I love you"
[Tag]
D#m Fm F#
He was sayin', "I love you"
G# F#
The only way he knew how
