[C] [F] Every line of time, [C] grab the fishing [F] line, gonna get old Jim [Bb] with the yellowback fly.
Bought it in a store, paid a [Bb] little more, [F] gonna catch that fish with [Gm] the yellowback [C] fly.
[F] Tried it last year, the lit firefly, made it on the water with a perfect [C] bullseye.
[F] Old Jim made a splash, gone in a flash, [Bb] beneath the [F] water I heard him [C] laugh.
[F]
I go at [Bb] 6am, [F] quiet as a hymn, gonna catch old Jim with the [C] yellowback fly.

[Bb] Here I [Bb] am at last, [F] lying in [Bb] the grass, [F] a quiet little cast with the [C] yellowback fly.
[F] Felt a little [Bb] tug of Jim [F] and bit the bug, but then I let him run with the [C] yellowback fly.

[F] I go at [Bb] 6am, [F] quiet as a hymn, gonna catch old Jim with the [C] yellowback [F] fly.
