My Father’s Son (Dan Colehour, Scooter Carusoe)
As recorded by Montgomery Gentry, on “Carrying On”


C		          G
Old white washed barn doors
D
Rain rusted tin
C			   G
Straw packed shirt and blue jeans
D
Hangin' in the wind
C				G	D
There's never time for these bones to mend
C	            G
Up before the sun dries
D
The frost on my fields
C			G
I've got the diesel burnin'
D
Turnin' these four wheels
C		   G	         D
Across this land I been handed down
C		  G		    D
Feel my roots run deep in this ground

Chorus:
G		   D
So stand me up tall in this seat
C			G	         D
Lord help me guide this plow beneath my feet
G		      D
And turn this earth over one more time
C		G		D
Some say this way of life is done
C			  G
But not for my father's son

C		G
Three Generations
D
Before I ever came
C		     G
Cut back these timbers
D
And bet their lives on grain
C			G		D
And I want to see just once before I die
C			 G	        D
Us doin' more than just barely getting by

Chorus
Solo CGDCGD
C		     G
Now and then I walk my fence
D
Down by the old country road
C			   G
And watch the cars go rushin' by
D
And disappear like ghosts
C		    G		    D
Out where the sky meets the amber waves
C		     G	           D
Yeah I'm a rock in this land God made

Chorus
CGD Fade Out
