He's my father, my friend and I   love him,

That was hard to say just a few years ago,

    G            D       Em          G         C   G  C
Now he's getting old and I have gone off on my own

It makes me sad how my old man's years have flown

He's my father, my friend and I   love him,

         B7                 Em         G7
That was hard to say just a few years ago,
