Intro: G C G C
(Verse I)
G C G
The old man ran the bait shop in Eudora Mississippi
G D
He had his whole life story mounted right there on the wall
G
There were ducks and bucks and smallmouths
C G
And a few old faded pictures
F#m Em
With the same three cocky rednecks
C G
Grinnin' in 'em all
(Verse II)
G C G
One day I said "Hey mister, looks like you got some keepers"
G D
He said "That's right I've known them boys since we were only kids
G C G
I know what you're thinkin' son, but the keepers in those pictures
G Em C G F
Ain't the ones I'm holdin' they're the ones I'm standin' with
(Chorus)
C D G
They're the kind you give your life for, cuz you know they'd die for you
C D G F#m
The kind that you can count on when you're short a buck or two
Em Bm C
You don't find 'em on the surface no son you've gotta go a little deeper
D
And that's where you find the keepers
G C
(Verse III)
G C G
This one here is Charlie before he joined the army
G D
He came home with one leg and still he swears we slow him down
G C G
And Ralph there lost his Martha one July to cancer
G Em Am G F
We raise a glass together when her birthday rolls around
(Chorus)
C D G
They're the kind you give your life for, cuz you know they'd die for you
