verse 
G 
While he's still around 
         Em 
I'm gonna take him out to fish

'Cause you never know when the phone is gonna ring sayin' 
D 
 heaven had it out so made you wings 
    Em 
And all those things that you were gonna do 
         C 
Are just teardrops rainin' on a church pew 
      G 
So I'm gonna try to say it before I gotta pray it

Hopin' that he's looking down 
    Em 
And tell him that I love him
