Flashlight Chris Young
Capo on 1
Intro.: D Em/D A/D D x2
He [D]said, "Son, hold it still, keep that [A/C#]beam shinin' straight"[D/F#]
He'd have a [Bm]9/16ths in [A]one hand, workin' [G]on that Chevrolet
It [D]seemed like every Saturday soon [A/C#]as the sun went down[D/F#]
We'd be [Bm]huddled under-[A]neath that hood [G]tinkering around
(Pre-Chorus)
And of [Em]all of the great memories I've [A]had
The [Em]best ones are those [G]nights just [A]me and my dad
(Chorus)
[D/F#]He'll [G]never how much he taught me [A]out in that garage[D]
And I [G]guess the stuff that stuck was more about [A]life than fixing cars[Bm]
'Cause to [C]this day I [Bm]still can't make them [A]run right
[G]But I [Em]sure did [F#m]learn a lot, [G]just [A]holding the [D]flashlight
Inst.: Em/D A/D D
He [D]told me a lot of stories about [A/C#]grandpa and the war[D/F#]
While [Bm]he was trying to [A]show me what a car-[G]buretor's for
[D]I learned a couple cuss words when he [A/C#]skinned his knuckles up[D/F#]
And I [Bm]found out Momma was the [A]only girl he [G]ever really loved
(Pre-Chorus)
And of [Em]all of the great memories I've [A]had
The [Em]best ones are those [G]nights just [A]me and my dad
(Chorus)
[D/F#]He'll [G]never how much he taught me [A]out in that garage[D]
And I [G]guess the stuff that stuck was more about [A]life than fixing cars[Bm]
'Cause to [C]this day I [Bm]still can't make them [A]run right
[G]But I [Em]sure did [F#m]learn a lot, [G]just [A]holding the [D]flashlight
[G] [A] [D] [G] [G] [A] [Bm]
And to [C]this day I [Bm]still can't make them [A]run right
But deep [Bm]in-[C]side I [Bm]know that it's [A]alright
[G]'Cause I [Em]sure did [F#m]learn a lot[G] [G] [A] [A]
Just holding the [D]flashlight
