[Intro 1]
[D][Bb][F#][Am][Abdim][G]
[Em][A][Em][A][Em][A]
[D]
I [A]don't

[Verse 1]
[D]mean to [F#]preach a sermon
[Adim]But if y[Am]ou'v[Abdim]e got a s[G]on,[Em]
take [A]him fishing,
[Em]take him [A]fishing,
be his [D]buddy while he's [A]young.
Time [D]goes [F#]by s[Am]o swi[Abdim]ftly,
[G]don't blow it all [Em]again.
Take him [A]fishing, [Em]take him [A]fishing
[Em]If you w[A]ant him for your f[D]riend
I was young and so ambitious
[Abdim]Out to climb the l[Em]adder
[G]of suc[D]cess[Em]
Some might say I'd [A]done it
I [Em]gave my family everything
[A]I gave them everything but
together[D]ness.[A]
Now [Em]kids grow [A]up so [D]fast
that pretty soon [F#]they're gone,[Adim]
[Am]Off somewhere [Abdim]raising
families of [G]their own.
So [Em]don't let there be a big long [A]list[Em]
Of [A]those little family outing[Em]s
[A]that [D]you missed.
[Bm]I ne[Bbaug]ver had[D]
[Bbaug]time for plea[Am]sure
[Abdim]Now my so[G]ns are far away
[Em]And I'm wish[A]in' I took
them fishin' every [D]day you
