     Gbmaj9                      Bb13             Bb9+5      Bb7+5-9     
            Once in a life there comes a man like you

    Ebm11                                     Gb13  Gb9+5   C6/9
         And you bear a son so much like your self

     Bmaj9                                    Bbm9         Eb7+9   Eb7+5-9
           And it's hard to believe that he's grown into a man

      Ab13    Ab9+5        B/C#    Bb    Db   G13-9  Bb13-9
But   pop          I under stand

      Bmaj9                  Bb13                   Bb7+5
            Once every night       I thank my lucky stars

    F#/E  Ebm11                              Gb13  Bb+5/C  Bbmaj7+5/C
                You've given me some guiding light

    Bmaj9                               Bbm9         Eb7+9    Eb7+5-9
          But there comes a time when a father and a son

            Ab13    B/C#        E/F#     Gbmaj9  G/F
     Can no longer          be  one

      Em9                    A9       Db/D       Dmaj9
           It took me so long  to re  cov  er-er er 

         Bb9               Am9      D7+9           Gm9    Ebmaj7-5
From the pain of having de nied the love I once re lied u pon

      E11                    A11         Db/D        Dmaj9
          It takes more than time to dis coverer-er –er

           Bb9                Am9
  That for both the young and old

    D7+9     Ab9       Gm9      Ebmaj7-5
The truth is sometimes cold but right

    Bmaj9                   Dmaj7-5  Dbmaj7-5  Cmaj7-5   Bmaj7-5
          This is my life

             Bb7            Bb9-5      Bb9    
    And I've got to hold my own

     F#/E    Ebm11
                    Even if it means     

             Gb13      A13   Bb13  B13  C13   C7     Bmaj9
  hurting us both

                                        Bbm9     
    And the wrongs become right when we stop

               Eb7+9    Eb7+5-9
    and wonder how

      Ab13         B/C#
      Look at us         we're better friends now
