Capo 3rd fret

Intro
E   A E   A

Verse 1
The EWhole Place Looks Like A Tackle Box
EMore Rods And Reels Than A Bass Pro Shop
Night ACrawlers In The Drawer, In The Fridge, In The Kitchen
AMagnet On The Door Says, "Gone Fishing"
EEight-Pound Bass On A Driftwood Mount
EHe Hung It In The Shop, She Moved It In The House
On The ALiving Room Wall 'Cause It Takes Her Back When
AThey Took That Trip To Toledo Bend
There Was BStill A Chill In The Morning Air
BSometimes Her Mind Floats Back There

Chorus
When It's A5Am And He EAin't In Bed
He's Just BRacin' The Rain 'Fore The C#mSky Breaks Red
She ADon't Smell Coffee Or EHear The Floor Creak
Must Have BKissed Her Head And Just C#mLet Her Sleep
'Til She ASees That Tracker Right EWhere He Left It
BTarped Outside And She C#mComes To Her Senses
It ADon't Last Long, But For EOne Sweet Minute
BHe Ain't Gone, He's Just Gone EFishing   A​

First EDate Was On A Farm Pond Catchin' Brim
EHe'd Take 'Em Off Soon As She'd Reel One In
He AKnew Right Then It Wasn't Catch And Release
AThey Went Together Like Hushpuppies And Hot Grease
When BShe Drifts Off, That's Where She Goes
BOnly Time She Don't Feel Alone
