Intro: D - D - G - D - D
After seve[D]nteen years, behind b[G]ars
And looking back on his mis[D]takes
He s[D]at down and poured out, his he[G]art
When his s[Em]on came and seen him to[A]day
[Bm]He spoke with a vo[A]ice, that tre[G]mbled
T[Bm]rying to h[A]old back the t[G]ears
He said [G]I ain't been [F#m]much of a f[Em]ather
Son I w[G]ish I could turn back, the y[A]ears
Cause l[G]ife's like a river, And the w[D]ater is deep
Cr[A]oss it with care, Or you'll e[D]nd up like me

Let my mistakes, Be your steppin' stones
And w[Em]alk on the ro[A]cks, That I stumbled o[D]n

He said s[D]on stay away from, the b[G]ottle
Watch [G]out for the company you k[D]eep
And ho[D]ld on to those you l[G]ove
Cause l[Em]ove is a man's greatest ne[A]ed
[Bm]The right way m[A]ay not be e[G]asy
[Bm]The right road a[A]in't always str[G]aight
[G]Son, please don't [F#m]follow the foo[Em]tsteps
That l[G]eads to where I am t[A]oday
