Capo: 3rd Fret
Intro: [D] [G] [D] [G]
After [D]seventeen years behind [G]bars
And [G]lookin back on his mis[D]takes
He [D]sat down and poured out his [G]heart
When his [E]son came to see him [A]today
[Bm]He spoke with a [A]voice that [G]trembled
[Bm]Tryin to [A]hold back the [G]tears
He said [G]I ain't been [F#m]much of a [Em]father
Son I [G]wish I could turn back the [A]years
CHORUS:
Cause [G]life's like a river
And the [D]water is deep
[A]Cross it with care
Or you'll [D]end up like me
[G]Let my mis[A]takes
Be [D]your steppin [G]stones
And [Em]walk on the rocks that [A]I stumbled [D]on
INTRO
He said [D]son stay away from the [G]bottle
Watch [G]out for the company you [D]keep
And [D]hold on to those you [G]love
Cause [E]love is a man's greatest [A]need
[Bm]The right way [A]may not be [G]easy
[Bm]The right road [A]ain't always [G]straight
[G]Son, please don't [F#m]follow the [Em]footsteps
That [G]lead to where I am [A]today
CHORUS
