[Verse 1]
A B 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 B I got a hammer and a ratchet set D A hundred tools I ain't used yet F#m E D Well they're rusty, but they work as good as new A B D Dm E 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 B You had visited the barber D You were stationed at Pearl Harbor F#m E D A year before the War became the world's
[Chorus]
E C# F#m And you say, "Boy, sometimes you've got to get up on that ship E D Leave all you love behind." E C# Well, Grampa, I've been everywhere F#m A/F# But Fargo, North Dakota D E It ain't war, but it's a fight A F#m D E 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 B I could show you call the sketchbooks D That I filled when I was young F#m E D And sixty years ago you did the same
[Chorus]
E C# And you say, "Boy, just let 'em laugh F#m When all they see is lines-- E D Paint yourself a picture of your life E C# I believe that Swedish folks were F#m Born with better eyes." D E Grampa, I have always loved the sky A B I think you're right D E You gave me tools
[Bridge]
D A You sent that telegraph to tell her that you missed her D E F#m When my daddy was a baby, oh you gave him to the Lord E C# F#m A D And the faith you handed down has somehow stuck around D And love has called you home again Dm E To roam again no more
[Verse 4]
A B 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 B D Faith and Love and Hope are what I carried home F#m E D They're rusty but they work as good as new A B D Dm E A Tools, tools
