Verse 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) On the (G major) top shelf in the closet
In the (C major) workshop where
he spent (D major) his (G major) extra time
Was a dusty wooden box that (C major) I had
never no (D major) ticed 'til that (G major) night
Then we set (C major) on the table and carefully
we opened up the top (G major)
And (D major) stared into the memories daddy
kept inside the box (G major)
Verse 2
There was a (C major) letter from mama,
when she went out to Reno
To help her sister out in (G major) '62
And a (D major) flower from Hawaii,
when they went on vacation
It was the first time that my
daddy ever flew (G major)

Verse 3
And the (C major) pocket knife I gave
to him on Fathers day
Years ago, I thought it had been (G major) lost
We all (D major) thought his heart
was made of solid rock
But that was long before
we found (G major) the box (C major) (G major) (C major)
Verse 4
I (G major) guess we always knew it but (C major) "I love
you" was hard (D major) for him to (G major) say
Some men show it easily and (C major) some
just never seem (D major) to find (G major) the way
But (C major) that night I began to see a
softer side of some I had lost (G major)
I (D major) saw the love he kept inside the first time
when we opened up the box (G major)
Verse 5
There was a (C major) picture that was taken
when he and mom were datin'
Standing by his 1940 (G major) Ford
And a (D major) faded leather Bible he got
when he was baptized
I guess no one understood
him like the Lord (G major)
Verse 6
And the (C major) poem that he had written
all about his wife and children
The tender words he wrote
were quite a shock (G major)
We all (D major) thought his heart
was made of solid rock
But that was long before we found (G major) the box
We all (D major) thought his heart was made
of solid rock
But that was long before
we found (G major) the box (C major) (G major) (C major)
