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
