Song: 18 Video Tapes Tab
Capo 1
Intro- D-G x4
D D/F# G
One day little Billy said momma, wheres my dad?
D D/F# G
Fightin back the tears she said I knew one day youd ask
D D/F# G G/F#
She walked him down the hallway, to a closet with a safe
Em Asus A D-G-D-G
Said I think youll find the answer right here, in these 18 video tapes
D D/F# G
See the doctors told him hed be gone before you were born
D D/F# G
And it broke his heart to know hed never hold you in his arms
D D/F# G G/F#
Determined not to let you grow up learnin from mistakes
Em Asus A D
He put everything he thought youd need to know, on 18 video tapes
(Chorus)
G
Like heres the way you hold a bat,
Be sure to keep that shoulder back
D
And when you cast that rod and reel,
Well use your wrist its in the feel,
G
Or when you learn to ride your bike
D
Ill tell you now that you wont like those training wheels
Asus A
But your momma will
D D/F# G
From that day his momma showed him one of them a year
D D/F# G
Sometimes it was almost like his dad was really there
D D/F#
Sometimes He laughed, sometimes he cried
G G/F#
But he always walked away
Em Asus A
Havin learned another lesson from his dad, in those 18 video tapes
(CHORUS)
G
Like when you shave dont get too close
Lose the hair but leave the nose
D
And when your momma gives you my old truck
Dont drive too fast or ride the clutch
G
Dont listen to your buddies son
D
when the conversation comes to the birds and bees
Asus A
Just go to tape 18
