Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
Verse 1
Most (G major) of the favorite memories of
My (C major) boyhood days in Arkansas
Are scattered (G major) around an old wood stove
At a place we call (D major) John's
It was just (G major) an old tar paper shack
With a pump out front and
(C major) some junk out back
But inside there was al (G major) ways (D major) a
Hot (G major) cup of coffee
And a warm place (D major) around
the fire for anyone (G major)
John pumped gas for a living and
He fixed tires on the (C major) side
And I guess old John could fix (G major) most anything
If you didn't push it (D major) he'd try
And he (G major) gave me my first
Charge account for some gas (C major)
And financed my first date
Even (G major) fixed my old radio just
In case I got lucky
(D major) And wanted to park down (G major) by the lake
And among (C major) the carburetors and
The re-built generators
generators
I spent (G major) the whole night picking
On an old flattop guitar
John (C major) would play the fiddle and
I'd (G major) always sing a little
No there is no place to get filled
Up the (D major) way you could at John's (G major)
John taught me a whole lot about
Country music (C major) because he loved it
We'd sit up and listen (G major) to the
Grand Ole Opry every
Saturday night (D major)
Nobody would ever say a word
Not even during (G major) Martha White
And I was awfully young back then (C major)
But still I knew just why
That John (G major) closed the
shop the whole day
When (D major) we heard that Hank had died (G major)
There was something else special
About ole John
He had a way (C major) of making us
kids feel important
Simply by giv (G major) ing us a good
Clean place to hang out (D major)
Well I can still hear him saying
(G major) Pumping gas is a fever boys
It'll get in your (C major) blood and it'll make
Your face break out in a grin
(G major) Just to check old lady Hanson's oil
Or (D major) to help a stranded friend
(G major)
