CAPO II

INTRO: Em D C Em D G

D G D

Daddy shoulda a preacher man 'cause everybody loved to hear him speak

G D

He didn't always follow his own advice but we got a sermon every week

Em C G D

He'd say trouble always starts as fun and broken hearts will always mend

Em C G D

Tough times don't last, tough people do, and nothin' breaks if it can bend

CHORUS:

C G

Don't ever sell your saddle, never owe another man

Am7 D G G7

Watch where you spit on a windy day, don't use words you don't understand

C7 C Em

Find the Lord before you need him and never your pride

Am7-Em C D7 G

Don't ever sell your saddle 'cause life's a long long ride

INTRO

Daddy never ran from anything, always took his share of the blame

Had a heart big enough to fill a valley up, but hard enough to stop a train

He said only fight when you have to because there's always a faster gun

And you'll know a hero from a coward when you see which way they run

CHORUS

BRIDGE:

F C G7 D

Daddy left me his old saddle the day that he passed on

F C D

And these words are etched into my mind just like they were in stone

CHORUS

Am7-Em C D7 G

Don't ever sell your saddle 'cause life's a long long ride
