I walked the steps of my father today

G
Worked till I froze and my face turned grey

Em       Bm                                        G
And all of my fingers calloused and worn to the bone

       D                                    Bm
And I felt like a child in a world full of men

G
Trying to capture that something again

Bm                                      G
Strong as an ox but slowly turning to stone

      F#    Bm           G
Walking away from this room dark and grey

 Bm                            G
Smoke hangs in clouds and the old echo plays

D
And the music is soft

         A
And the voice it is hushed

D        Bm
  And the boy he has loved

        G
And the man he has lost

D        A            Bm
And I walk out in the rain
     A      G
All over again

Bm F#m G D A

Bm
I felt the touch of my mother today

G
Gently pushing me forward again

Bm                         G
Closing my eyes but still feeling the way

Bm
And I'm clutching at fingers through crumples and creases

G
I came to my senses it cut me to pieces

Bm                                        G
'cause I needed more but I was pulling away

Bm                        G
Walking alone with these legs made of stone

        Bm Dbm  Bm        G
And I'm almost dry and I'm almost home

D
Where the photographs smile

         A
And I'm still someone's child

         Bm
And my place it is set

         G
So I'll stay for a while

        D A             Bm
Till I walk out in the rain

                    G
Like water would stain
        D   A          Bm     G
And I'm born all over again


Bm     A G
D        A

Bm       G

        D A             Bm
Till I walk out in the rain

                    G
Like water would stain

        D   A          Bm     G
And I'm born all over again

 D              A       Bm                D   G       D
I walk                out in the rain
