Verse 1]
G C
The tears have all been shed now
D G
We've said our last goodbyes
E
His soul's been blessed
Am
And he's laid to rest
A D
It's now I feel alone
G C
He was more than just a father
D G
A teacher, my best friend
E
He can still be heard
Am
In the tunes we shared
A D
When we play them on our own
[Chorus]
C G
I never will forget him
C G
For he made me what I am
C
Though he may be gone
D Em
Memories linger on
C D G
And I miss him…...the old man
[Verse 2]
G C
As a boy, he'd take me walking
D G
By mountain, field and stream
E Am
He showed me things not known to kings
A D
And secret between him and me
G C
Like the colours of the pheasant
D G
As he rises in the dawn
E Am
And how to fish and make a wish
A D
Beside the holly tree
[Chorus]
C G
I never will forget him
C G
For he made me what I am
C
Though he may be gone
D Em
Memories linger on
C D G
And I miss him…...the old man
[Verse 3]
G C
I thought he'd live forever
D G
He seemed so big and strong
E Am
But the minutes fly, the years roll by
A D
For a father and a son
G C
And suddenly, when it happened
D G
There was so much left unsaid
E Am
No second chance to tell him thanks
A D
For everything he's done
[Chorus]
C G
I never will forget him
C G
For he made me what I am
C
Though he may be gone
D Em
Memories linger on
C D G
And I miss him…...the old man
