[INTRO]
[D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [A]
[Dm] [Dsus2] [Bm] [A]
[VERSE 1]
[D]For the longest time he was the kind I just didn't understand
[Bm]Hard to read, hard to please, yeah [A]that was my old man
[D]On the day I left I for college it was nothing new
We [Dm]never had that [D]heart to heart, [Bm]he had too much to d[A]o
[CHORUS]
[Bm]He checked the air in my tires, the [G]belts and all the sparkplug wires
[D]Said when was the last time you [A]had this oil changed
And as [Bm]I pulled out the drive he said, "be [G]sure and call your mom sometime"
[D]I didn't hear it then but I hear it [A]now
He was saying [Bm]"I loooove [G]you," the only way [A]he knew [D]how
[INTERLUDE]
[D] [Dsus2] [Bm] [A]
[Dm] [Dsus2] [Bm] [A]
[VERSE 2]
[D]A hundred twenty thousand miles and 6 years down the road
[Bm]Brand new life brand new wife we[A] just bought our first home
[D]When he finally came to visit I thought he'd be so proud
[Dm]He never said he [Dsus2]liked the place he just [Bm]got his tool belt [A]out
[CHORUS 2]
[Bm]And put new locks on the doors, went back and [G]forth to the hardware store
Said [D]come and hold this flashlight as he [A]crawled beneath the sink
[Bm]These old wires aren't up to code and that c[G]ircuit box is gonna overload
And I [D]didn't hear it then but I hear it [A]now
He was saying [Bm]I loooove [G]you the only [A]way he knew [D]how
[BRIDGE]
Last [F]Sunday we all gathered for his 65th birthday
[C]And I knew he'd stiffen up but I hugged him anyway
[F]When was finally time to say goodbye I knew what was next
[G]Just like he always did [D]right before he [A]left
[CHORUS]
[Bm]He checked the air in my tires, the [G]belts and all the sparkplug wires
[D]Said when was the last time you [A]had this oil changed
And as [Bm]I pulled out the drive he said, "be [G]sure and call your mom sometime"
[D]I wish I knew back then what I know [A]now
He was saying [Bm]"I loooove [G]you,"
He was saying [Bm]"I loooove [G]you,"... the only [A]way he knew [D]how
