By: Alan Jackson (Capo at 3rd fret) Intro: D - D - G - D - D
          D                     G
After seventeen years,  behind bars

                           D
And looking back on his mistakes

    D                              G
He sat down and poured out,  his heart

          Em                     A                       
When his son came and seen him today

Bm                A             G
He spoke with a voice,  that trembled

 Bm        A             G
Trying to hold back the tears

        G            F#m        Em
He said I ain't been much of a father

       G                           A
Son I wish I could turn back, the years

       G                            D
Cause life's like a river, And the water is deep

  A                            D
Cross it with care, Or you'll end up like me

G        A          D              G     (Hold for 4 beats)
Let my mistakes, Be your steppin' stones

     Em           A                     D
And walk on the rocks, That I stumbled on
D - D - G - D - D - G
         D                       G
He said son stay away from, the bottle

      G                        D
Watch out for the company you keep

      D                   G
And hold on to those you love

       Em                        A
Cause love is a man's greatest need

Bm             A          G
The right way may not be easy

Bm              A              G
The right road ain't always straight

G                 F#m           Em
Son, please don't follow the footsteps

      G                   A
That leads to where I am today
Repeat Chorus: G - A - D - G (Hold for 4 beats)
          Em                     A          D
Tag: And walk on the rocks, That I stumbled on
Outro: D - D - G - D - D - G - D
