[B] [E]
[B]
Every day I'd drive to [E] work across Flint River [B] Bridge
A hundred yards from the [E] spot where [G#m] me and Grandpa fished
[F#] There's a piece of his old fruit stand [E] on the side of Sawmill Road
[F#] He'd be there peeling peaches if [E] it was twenty years ago
[D#m] And what I [E] wouldn't give [B]
[D#m] to ride around in that old [E] truck with [F#] him
[B] If heaven wasn't so far [E] away I'd pack up the kids and go for the [F#] day
Introduce them to their [E] Grandpa, watch him laugh at the way he [B] talks
Find my long lost cousin [E] John, the one we left back in Vietnam
[F#] Show him a picture of his daughter [E] now, she's a doctor and he'd be [G#m] proud
Tell him [F#] we'd be back in a [E] couple of days
[G#m]
And the rear view [F#] mirror, we'd all [E] watch him wave
[D#m] [G#m]
Yeah, losing [F#] them wouldn't be so [E] hard to take
If heaven [F#] wasn't so far [B] away
I'd hug all three of those girls we [E] lost from the class of ninety-nine
[B] And I'd find my bird dog Bo [E] and take him hunting one more time
[F#] I asked Hank why he took those [E] pills back in fifty-three
[F#] And Janice sang the second [E] verse of me and Bobby [G#m] McGee
[D#m] Sit on a cloud and visit [E] for a while
[D#m] It'd do me good just to see [E] them [F#] smile
[B] If heaven wasn't so far [E] away
I'd pack up the kids and go for the [F#] day
Introduce them to their Grandpa, [E] watch him laugh at the way he [B] talks
Find my long lost cousin [E] John, the one we left back in Vietnam
[F#] Show him a picture of his daughter [E] now, she's a doctor and he'd be [G#m] proud
Tell him [F#] we'd be back in a [E] couple of [B] days
[G#m] And the rear view [F#] mirror, we'd all [E] watch him wave
[D#m] [E] [G#m] Yeah, losing [F#] them wouldn't be so [E] hard to take
If heaven [F#] wasn't so far, [E] if heaven [F#] wasn't so far
[E] If heaven [F#] wasn't so far [B] away
[E] So far [B] away
So [E] far [B] away
