Verse 1
D 
Well he bang on this,
G 
and bang on that
He'd adjust the timing
D 
A 
Turn the mag and set the screw
Then he'd fix the idle
D 
Finally he'd make 'em run
G 
As good as they were
D 
gonna be
A 
And everything you knew you know
D 
A 
He taught it all to me
D 
And he liked small motors
G 
D 
Fly wheels on the side
A 
Single piston engines
made out of cast iron
D 
He liked small motors
G 
D 
He'd start 'em one by one
We'd stand around and we'd listen
A 
D 
To them little engines run

Verse 2
D 
And he wore railroad coveralls
G 
D 
With his name written on the chest
A 
We talked Model A's and T's
While he rolled cigarettes
D 
And we'd get lost inside our thoughts
G 
D 
And we'd let those tanks run dry
A 
And one by one those little engines
D 
Sputter and they'd die
And he liked small motors
G 
D 
Fly wheels on the side
A 
D 
A 
Single piston engines
made out of cast iron
D 
He liked small motors
G 
D 
He'd start 'em one by one
We'd stand around and we'd listen
A 
D 
To them little engines run

Verse 3
D 
Boys I know you're in your suits
G 
And you've come to say goodbye
D 
A 
And I can tell you miss him too
By the tears in your eyes
D 
But I'm asking you a favor
G 
By a boy who's brokenhearted
D 
A 
Help me get these suckers down
D 
Help me get 'em started
And he liked small motors
G 
D 
Fly wheels on the side
A 
Single piston engines
made out of cast iron
D 
He liked small motors
G 
D 
He'd start 'em one by one
We'd stand around and we'd listen
A 
D 
A 
D 
A 
To them little engines run
