[Intro]
C G C G
C Em D9 C
[Verse 1]
G C G
He's got sawdust in the pockets of his dusty worn out jeans,
C G D9
And a little more rolled up in the cuffs of his sleeves.
G C Em
At night he dreams in yellow birch and he dreams in solid oak,
G D9 G
When they painted the fir at the old church, well his heart it damn near broke.
[Verse 2]
G C G
He said I know you've come here for some fatherly advice.
C G D9
But, there's little I can tell you to get you through this life.
G C Em
I do know it ain't easy and sometimes it don't make sense,
G D9 G
But everything that means anything I learned standing at this bench.
[Chorus]
C G C G
Snap a chalk line to stay straight measure twice for you cut,
C Em D9 C
You'll always bend a nail if you drive it through a knot.
C G B7 C
A little oil on your whetstone keeps a good edge on your plane,
G D9 C
But don't buy a word of what you've heard, you don't have to go with the grain;
G D9 G
Son you don't have to go with the grain.
[Break]
C G C G
C Em D9 C
[Verse 3]
G C G
He said I'm just a dreamer, wouldn't change if I could.
C G D9
Only dreams crash and burn when they're made of wood.
G C Em
But I've seen a world with no seams, one where there's no nails,
G D9 G
Sometimes I've imagined a world of just dovetails.
[Chorus]
C G C G
Snap a chalk line to stay straight measure twice for you cut,
C Em D9 C
You'll always bend a nail if you drive it through a knot.
C G B7 C
A little oil on your whetstone keeps a good edge on your plane,
G D9 C
But don't buy a word of what you've heard, you don't have to go with the grain;
G D9 G
Son you don't have to go with the grain.
[Break]

[Verse 4]
G C G
I guess I'm tryin' tell you son there's no sure bets,
C G D9
So live your life with no fear and die with no regrets.
G C Em
And don't buy a word of what you've heard, I'll say it once again:
G D9 G
You don't have to go with the grain, son, you don't have to go with the grain.
[Chorus]
C G C G
Snap a chalk line to stay straight measure twice for you cut,
C Em D9 C
You'll always bend a nail if you drive it through a knot.
C G B7 C
A little oil on your whetstone keeps a good edge on your plane,
G D9 C
But don't buy a word of what you've heard, you don't have to go with the grain;
G D9 G
Son you don't have to go with the grain.
