Verse One:
Fm G#
My old man is a lonely tree
D# G#
Sitting on a branch in a lonely sea
Fm G#
When I first met him I thought how
D# G#
Could he have let my mother down
Chorus One:
A#m Fm
But my old man he came to see me
G# D#
He put his hand in mine and said he loved me
A#m Fm
Well I was burned up with ill feeling
G#
But his eyes they said it all
D#
I forgave him for his fall
Fm
Verse Two:
Fm G#
And in the summer he’s a summer breeze
D# G#
Shooting at all his possibilities
Fm G#
He prays to god to fix him up
D# G#
But he plays with the devil to fill his cup
//Chorus Two//
A#m Fm
My old man is good at singing
G# D#
He plays the guitar like Carlos Santana should have done
A#m Fm
To be a broken man it hurts his feelings
G#
But we are what we have done
D#
Sweet souls setting in the sun

But it only draws me near
