Teachin' me about the good Lord
                 D
Givin' me that old Ford
                         A
When I turned sixteen
                          Bm
Thanks for hangin' in there

Thanks for never
D/F#                                  G
Changin' that lock on the front door

Thanks for the G chord

Verse 3
That flat top Martin
You gave me back then
You know I've still got it now
I keep it locked up
In that same ol' case
You used to tote around

Verse 4
Sometimes when the crowd is quiet
I'll bring it out again
And play the first song you taught me
Back when I was ten

Repeat Chorus

Changin' that lock on the front door
Thanks for the G chord
