[verse]
G
While he's still around
G
I'm gonna take him out to fish
G
So we can catch up on them stories
D
That we ain't got to yet
G
And while he's still around
G
I'm gonna make a couple notes
G
About how he's loved my mama
D
Since all those years ago
[chorus]
G
'Cause you never know when the phone is gonna ring sayin'
Am
heaven handed out some angel wings
Em
And all those things that you were gonna do
D
Are just teardrops rainin' on a church pew
G
So I'm gonna try to say it before I gotta pray it
Am
Hopin' that he's looking down
C
And tell him that I love him
D G D G D
While he's still around
[verse]
G
While he's still around
G
We're gonna fix up that old car
G
So one day when it's all mine
G D
He'll be there every time it starts
G
And while he's still around
G
Yeah I wanna meet the one
G
Watch him try and hold them tears back
G D
When I see him holdin' my son
[chorus]
G
'Cause you never know when the phone is gonna ring sayin'
Am
heaven handed out some angel wings
Em
And all those things that you were gonna do
D
Are just teardrops rainin' on a church pew
G
So I'm gonna try to say it before I gotta pray it
Am
Hopin' that he's looking down
C
And tell him that I love him
D
While he's still around
[bridge]
Em
I'm gonna try and catch a game with him
D
Take a road trip, get on out of state with him
Em
Make every memory I can make with him
D
Live it up, before it's too late with him
[chorus]
G
'Cause you never know when the phone is gonna ring sayin'
Am
heaven handed out some angel wings
Em
And all those things that you were gonna do
D
Are just teardrops rainin' on a church pew

So I'm gonna try to say it before I gotta pray it
Am
Hopin' that he's looking down
C
And tell him that I love him
