[Verse 1]
E
Colorado cans on the Tennessee water,
E
Nothing really nibblin' on the end of that bobber
A                                             E
Me and my old man's old man just talkin' it up
        B
He said just 'cause you drop a line
A
Don't mean the fish'll bite


[Chorus]
               E
So if it don't rain, talk to the good Lord
             E
If it don't crank, it ain't from Detroit
                A
You want a good song, play an old one
              E
The only good boat is a sold one
                  B
Work ain't always done when the day's done
                         A
You can't always catch a break or a big one
                           E
But you can always catch a cold one


[Verse 2]
E
Yeah, I didn't get it then, but I sure do now
E
It's kinda up to you how it all turns out
A                                    E
Life ain't always pinewood docks and blue skies
      B
Every time I reach down in the ice
            A
I can still hear him from the other side


[Chorus]
                    E
Sayin' if it don't rain, talk to the good Lord
             E
If it don't crank, it ain't from Detroit
                A
You want a good song, play an old one
              E
The only good boat is a sold one
                  B
Work ain't always done when the day's done
                         A
You can't always catch a break or a big one
                           E
Yeah you can always catch a cold one


[Bridge]
A
Life ain't always easy
B
Man, ain't that the truth
A
You can't win 'em all
B
But even when you lose
A
Yeah, you can still drink a few


[Chorus]
                    E
Sayin' if it don't rain, talk to the good Lord
             E
If it don't crank, it ain't from Detroit
                A
You want a good song, play an old one
         E
The only good boat is a sold one
                  B
Work ain't always done when the day's done
                         A
You can't always catch a break or a big one
                           E
Yeah you can always catch a cold one
                  B
Work ain't always done when the day's done
                         A
You can't always catch a break or a big one
                           E
Yeah you can always catch a cold one
