what he does is he just keep his ring and pinky fingers on the 3rd fret
 of the b
and little e strings through the whole song and switches only the other
 fingers.
It gives the chords a brighter sound when he plays them. So throughout 
this tab
when I say a chord I mean those ones up there.

G
It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nail
C
It's not worth a lot of money
G
but it damn sure ain't for sale
D                                C
The good lord only knows all the stories it could tell
                  G
My Granddaddy's gun

G
He bought it new out of the sears and robuck catalog
C
And it shot a many a shells over the back of an old bird dog
D                                         C
And it backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off
               G
Granddaddy's gun.

[Chorus:]

C                       G
It's just an old double barrel twelve
D                           Em
The stock is cracked and it kick's like hell
C                     G                  D
It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one

C                                       G
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder
D                                 Em
A gun's like a woman son it's all how you hold her
C                        G                D
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
C                          G                D
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
                  G
My Granddaddy's Gun

G
He handed it to me on the day I turned thirteen
C
With a half shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean
D                                    C
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me
                   G
And Granddaddy's gun

[Chorus:]

C                       G
It's just an old double barrel twelve
D                           Em
The stock is cracked and it kick's like hell
C                     G                  D
It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one
C                                       G
Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder
D                                 Em
A gun's like a woman son it's all how you hold her
C                        G                D
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
C                          G                D
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
                  G
My Granddaddy's Gun

C                                         G
There's a long beard hanging on the livin' room wall
D                              C               G   D
That I got with a box call and Granddaddy's gun
C                                   G
There's a Shot up sign out there on forty nine
D                             Em             C               G   D
That me and billy joe shot up one night With granddaddy's gun

G
It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
C
