[Verse 2]
F#
He was a lion
B C#
We were our father's pride
F#
But I was defiant
B C#
When he made me walk the line
D#m
He knew how to lift me up
F# B
And when to let me fall
Bm C#
Looking back, he always had a plan
F#
My old man
[Chorus]
B
My old man
F#
Feel the callus on his hands
C#
And dusty overalls
B
My old man
F#
Now I finally understand
C#
I have a lot to learn
F#
From my old man
[Bridge]

Like his old man

My old man
F#
I know one day we'll meet again

My old man

I'm trying to fill the boot
F#
of my old man
