D                        D7
Son, you make me feel so proud

G                            G7    G7 C
Pop the bottons right off my shirt

D
I know I promised to take you to the lake today

                      A                   G                   D
But I'm gonna have to break that promise, and it really hurts

D              D7         G           
Everytime I go fishin' it alway starts me wishin'

A            G    G7    D
That I could be a child again

        G               C       D
Take my fifty cents and go down to the local picture show

E7                          A    A7
To watch my heroes rope and ride

     D                     D7                   G             D
Most times they'd win, but when they'd lose it always made me cry

      G                D                    A      D
Ain't nothin' quite as sad as watchin' your heroes die

       F#7              G                   Em     A         D
One by one, and as they fall, soon there'll be no heroes at all
[Solo] D D7 G G7 G7 C D A G D [Verse]
D                      D7
Well I guess the fish just ain't bitin'

G                                                  A
And just as well 'cause I don't feel like fightin'

                   A7                         D    G
All in all it just ain't that great a fishin' day

                   C        D                                           E7
That old newspaper headline  kinda wrapped around this old heart of mine

                    A    A7
Another big one got away

      D                          D7                      G                 D
And I can't count the times he's made me laugh, but this time he's made me cry

                G                D                    A      D
And there ain't nothin' quite as sad as watchin' your heroes die

       F#7        G                     Em    A         D
One by one, as they fall, soon there'll be no heroes at all
[Outro] D D7 G G7 A D
