Fun Having Fun

     A                           
My granddad's pride and joy was a 
  D    A
'49 Ford
Much as he loved Grandma he 
E
loved that old truck more
 D               E          A    
I thought it was time that I took
           D
 it for a stroll
     E                             
I had a big old pair for a boy just
             A
 eight years old


[Verse 2]
Grindin' second gear, driftin' 
D                 A
through the cows
Rippin' through the pasture when the
        E
 brakes finally gave out
        D                 E       
He was screamin' from the porch, I
      A                     F#m
 was crashin' through the fence
               B                 
And he said, "What do you have to 
                      E
say for what you've done?"

In my defense, I said it's


[Chorus]
D          A
Fun havin' fun
             E                   
There's only so many trips around 
     F#m
the sun
     D                    A
Of a gun, what's done is done
E
Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts
                     A
But it's fun havin' fun


[Verse 3]
    A                     D       
My dad kept a can of gas behind 
         A
our old barn
I made sure I was careful when I 
E
poured it on the lawn
     D        E                   
The fire was beautiful 'til the 
  A             D
wind started to blow
       E                        
That ember hit the hayloft and I 
                       A
watched that sucker go


[Verse 4]
It didn't take long at all, there 
     D            A
was forty foot flames
I remember feelin' grateful that the
   E
 fire was now contained
     D                E          
The firemen had a hose and my 
A           F#m
dad, he had a belt
           B                     
He said, "What do you have to say 
                    E
for what you've done?"

I just felt that it's


[Chorus]
D           A
Fun havin' fun
             E                   
There's only so many trips around 
      F#m
the sun
      D                   A
Of a gun, what's done is done
E
Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts
                     A
But it's fun havin' fun

[Verse 5]
           A
Ten country boys doin' ninety-five 
down an old dirt road
Hotboxin' the minivan, squintin' 
              E
through the smoke
D                 E              
Blue lights came flashin' and 
    A              F#m
they hauled our asses in (Damn it, 
boy)
           B                       
I look **** up in the mugshot, but 
    E
I'd do it all again


[Bridge]
           D
If you're dumb (Yes, you're dumb)
               A
You gotta be tough (Well, you're 
tough)
           E                       
If you're smart, you might miss the
            F#m
 thrill of blowin' things up
        D                     
That's enough of a life that's 
  A
boring
          E             F#m
And the worst decisions make good 
stories
 D                         A
Grab your helmet and your cape
         E
Break a leg, duct tape her straight

Chicks dig scars and get-well cakes


[Chorus]
D                 A
Fun to have some fun
             E                   
There's only so many trips around 
     F#m
the sun
      D                    A
Of a gun, what's done is done
 E
Hold it flat 'cause none of it lasts
But it's fun havin' fun havin' fun 
        D
havin' fun, ah-ooh
