C (C2)
He was a giant

Growing up learning how to be

like my old man

[Verse]
C (C2)
He was a lion
F G
We were our father's pride
C (C2)
But I was defiant
F G
When he made me walk the line
Am
He knew how to lift me up
C F
And when to let me fall
Fm G
Looking back, he always had a plan
C
My old man
[Chorus]
F (Fmaj7)
My old man
Fm C
Feel the callus on his hands
G
And dusty overalls
F (Fmaj7)
My old man
Fm C
Now I finally understand
G
I have a lot to learn
C*
From my old man

[Verse]
C (C2)
Now I'm a giant
F G
Got a son of my own
C (C2)
He's always trying
F G
To go everywhere I go
Am C F
Do the best I can to raise him up the right way
Fm G
Hoping that he someday wants to be
C
Like his old man
[Chorus]
F (Fmaj7)
My old man
Fm C
I know one day we'll meet again
G
As he's looking down
F (Fmaj7)
My old man
Fm C
I hope he's proud of who I am
G
I'm trying to fill the boot
C
of my old man
My old man
