Writers: Anthony Smith / Chris Wallin


**Capo 2** (or see below for no capo chords)


Intro: D  G  C  G (x2)

          D          G
He had a stroke in '95 
                 D              G                     D  G  C  G
They thought it best that he reside, in a nursing home
            D                  G
The family vowed they'd never leave him
          D                 G                          D  G
The last time they came to see him, was three years ago
              D            G
He spent his whole life providin'
            D        G                D  G  C  G
Now he was down to relyin’, on Medicare
            D            G
The nurses took a liking to him
                 D                 G                    D  G
They'd get his wheelchair out and push him, on sunny days
             A                              C
He couldn't walk, he couldn't speak, seemed so far out of reach
            G                                A
But in his mind as far as they knew he could be 


Chorus:
 D   G               D                 G
Fly fishin', workin' on that firebird engine 
        D         G                     D         G
Runnin' 99 proof moonshine across that county line 
    D        G              D                  G
3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission
        D           G                D           G
Playin' QB for the Cowboys, gettin' high on the crowd noise
         A
And the bright lights
              C                               A
Cause deep inside things were rockin' in the mind
             D       G  D  G
Of John J. Blanchard 


     D            G
One afternoon in June
         D              G                  D          G  C  G
A nurse saw his finger move, about had a heart attack
           D                 G
She went screamin' down the hall
             D        G                        D    G
Hey, it's a miracle ya'll, I think he's comin' back 
     A                                  C
The doctors all rushed in, said do you know what year this is
           G                                     A  Asus4 Asus5
How many fingers am I holding and where've you been....

and he said


Chorus:
 D   G               D                 G
Fly fishin', workin' on that firebird engine 
        D         G                     D         G
Runnin' 99 proof moonshine across that county line 
    D        G              D                  G
3,2,1 and ignition, off on some space shuttle mission
        D           G                D           G
Playin' QB for the Cowboys, gettin' high on the crowd noise
         A
And the bright lights
               C                               A
Yeah all this time things were rockin' in the mind
             D       
Of John J. Blanchard 


Instrumental: G  D  G  D  G  D  G

          D          G
He had a stroke in '95 
                 D              G                       D  G  Bb   D
They thought it best that he reside, in a nursing home
