Watched Derek Cate on Youtube to see this version. [Intro] 2x G, D (slide B&E string up to 5th fret),Cadd9 [Verse 1]

   G
I remember looking up 

             Cadd9
To look up to him 

G
And I remember most the time 

         Cadd9
He wasn't there 

       Em7            D
I'd be waiting at the door 

                    Cadd9
When he got home at night 

      Am                  Em7             D
He'd pass me by to go to pass out in his chair

[Chorus] And I'd say

G                 Em7
Walk a little straighter daddy 

Cadd9                  D
You're swaying side to side 

G                         Em7
You're footsteps make me dizzy 

Cadd9                D
And no matter how I try 

          Am          Em7
I keep tripping and stumbling 

Cadd9
If you'd look down here you'd see 

                Am         Em7    D
Walk a little straighter daddy

You're leading me [Intro] G, D (slide B&E string up to 5th fret),Cadd9 [Verse 2] He stumbled in the gym On graduation day And I couldn't help but feel So ashamed And I wasn't surprised a bit When he didn't stay He stumbled out before they called my name [Chorus] And I thought Walk a little straighter daddy You're swaying side to side It's not just me who's watching you've caught everybody's eye And you're tripping and stumbling and even though I've turned 18 Walk a little straighter daddy You're still leading me G [Bridge]

F
The old mans still like he always was 

     Em7
But I love him anyway 

         Am
If I've learned one thing from him 

                 C             D
Its my kids will never have to say

Walk a little straighter daddy You're swaying side to side You're footsteps make me dizzy And no matter how I try I keep tripping and stumbling if you'd look down here you'd see Walk a little straighter daddy You're leading me Yeah walk a little straighter daddy You're leading me
