Hank Williams Jr. Hand Me Down
C G D G
G C G
I went down to the country music hall of fame
D
They had asked me to bring them more of daddy's things
G C G
They said Hank you know, someday you may go in here with him
D G
And I thought about, the note he wrote that I never told no one of them.
G C G
I got songs of his no one has seen and momentos that sure chill
D G D
But that note I found in his guitar case it made me cry like a whippoorwill.
D G D
He said son this my old guitar and it's for you only to play
E A
And I hope you make it ring and talk in our good ol family way.
D A
And if you make it to the top Bocephus boy ill be so proud
D A D
But listen to me son, when the time comes take this guitar and Hand Me Down.
D G
Hand Me Down, if your weary,
A D
Hand Me Down son, if you get sick or tired
D G
Hand Me Down, when the time comes,
D A
Don't hang on too long to these sad ol songs,
D G
Hand Me Down
G C G
So I took his note and but it back into his guitar case
A D
And I realized how long, I've been on the road and how many showed I have played.
G C G
And sometimes late at night standing in front of some big crowd,
D G
I swear I've heard him call my name and tell me Hand Me Down.
G C
Hand Me Down, if your weary,
D G
Hand Me Down son, if you just get tired
G C
Hand Me Down my son to your son,
G D G
Teach him all your songs and how his Granddaddy moaned and tell that boy to carry on.
C G D G D G
You teach him all your songs and how his Granddaddy moaned and tell that boy to Hand Me Down.
