[Verse]
He was a g[C]ia[(Cadd9)]nt
And[F] I was just a k[G]id
I was always t[C]ryin[(Cadd9)]g
To do [F]everything he[G] did
I [Am]can still remember every [C]lesson he [F]taught me
Gro[Fm]wing up learning how to[G] be
C*
like my old man

[Verse]
He was[C] a l[(Cadd9)]ion
We we[F]re our father's[G] pride
But I was [C]defia[(Cadd9)]nt
When[F] he made me walk t[G]he line
[Am]He knew how to lift me up
And w[C]hen to let me[F] fall
Lo[Fm]oking back, he always had a[G] plan
My old m[C]an
[Cborus]
My ol[F]d m[(Fmaj7)]an
Feel the ca[Fm]llus on his han[C]ds
And dust[G]y overalls
My old[F] ma[(Fmaj7)]n
Now I fi[Fm]nally unders[C]tand
I have a [G]lot to learn
C*
From my old man
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Now I'm a[C] gia[(Cadd9)]nt
Got a[F] son of my [G]own
He's alway[C]s tr[(Cadd9)]ying
To go[F] everywhere I[G] go
[Am]Do the best I can to raise him[C] up the [F]right way
[Fm]Hoping that he someday wants t[G]o be
Like his old [C]man
[Cborus]
My old[F] ma[(Fmaj7)]n
I know one day[Fm] we'll meet a[C]gain
As he's[G] looking down
My old[F] ma[(Fmaj7)]n
I hope he's [Fm]proud of who I[C] am
I'm trying to [G]fill the boot
of my[C] old man
My old man
