Verse One:
[C#m]My old man is a lonely t[E]ree
[B]Sitting on a branch in a lonely s[E]ea
[C#m]When I first met him I thought h[E]ow
[B]Could he have let my mother d[E]own
Chorus One:
[F#m]But my old man he came to s[C#m]ee me
[E]He put his hand in m[B]ine and said he loved me
[F#m]Well I was burned up with ill fe[C#m]eling
But his [E]eyes they said it all
I for[B]gave him for his fall
[C#m]
Verse Two:
[C#m]And in the summer he?s a summer b[E]reeze
[B]Shooting at all his possibilit[E]ies
[C#m]He prays to god to fix him [E]up
[B]But he plays with the devil to fill his [E]cup
//Chorus Two//
[F#m]My old man is good at s[C#m]inging
[E]He plays the guitar like Carlos[B] Santana should have done
[F#m]To be a broken man it hurts his f[C#m]eelings
But we a[E]re what we have done
Sweet souls [B]setting in the sun
[C#m]

Verse Three:
[C#m]My old man is as soft as [E]rain
[B]Humming through the night to forget his p[E]ain
[C#m]It runs through the family from what I [E]hear
[B]But it only draws me [E]near
//Chorus Two//
[F#m]My old man is good at s[C#m]inging
[E]He plays the guitar like Carlos[B] Santana should have done
[F#m]To be a broken man it hurts his f[C#m]eelings
But we a[E]re what we have done
Sweet souls [B]setting in the sun
[C#m]
