G                     Em
Frank D. Fixer was a handyman
          C                         G
He could handle everything; he was my granddad
G                         Em
He grew his own food and fixed his own car
   C                        G
I watched it all happen in our backyard
C#m7-5            Cmaj7                   G
He'd reinvent the part to fix the broken home
C#m7-5           Cmaj7
He restored the heart

Chorus:
   C      D     G
I wish I was a fixer
         C      D    Em
I would fix you up inside
         C           D           G          A7
I would build you a town if the world fell down
   C      D        G
I wish I was that guy

If Frank D. Fixer were alive today
Well he may laugh at me and he may have a lot to say
Well he might ask that I keep working for the family
To keep the bills all paid and be his protégé
What happened to the ground right where we are?
What happened to the family farm?

Chorus

Em                       C
Every evening breaking bread
              Em            C
He showed us who a real man is
            G                 C
No matter what my grandma says
         C#m7-5          C
He would never lose his head

Chorus

I wish I was a farmer
I would grow you a Garden of Eden
I would bless the family with
the gifts that granddad handed me
How wonderful that would be
Baby I'll make that guy be me
