[Intro]
Bm G D A
[Verse 1]
Bm
I walked the steps of my father today
G
Worked till I froze and my face turned grey
D G
And all of my fingers calloused and worn to the bone
Bm
And I felt like a child in a world full of men
G
Trying to capture that something again
D G
Strong as an ox but slowly turning to stone
[Pre-chorus 1]
Bm G
Walking away from this room dark and grey
Bm G
Smoke hangs in clouds and the old echo plays
[Chorus]
D
And the music is soft
A
And the voice it is hushed
Bm
And the boy he has loved
G
And the man he has lost
D A Bm
And I walk out in the rain
G
All over again
[Instrumental]
Bm G D A
[Verse 2]
Bm
I felt the touch of my mother today
G
Gently pushing me forward again
D G
Closing my eyes but still feeling the way
Bm
And I'm clutching at fingers through crumples & creases
G
I came to my senses it cut me to pieces
D G
'Cause I needed more but I was pulling away
[Pre-chorus 2]
Bm G
Walking alone with these legs made of stone
Bm G
I'm almost dry and I'm almost home
[Chorus]
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
And I'm born all over again,
[Instrumental]
Bm G D A x2
[Chorus]
D A Bm
So I walk out in the rain
G
Like water would stain
D A Bm G
And I'm born all over again, and I
[Outro]
D A
And I walked
Bm G
Out in the rain
