He said, "I'm sorry for the way that things went down.
G C G ~
And the wife and I wish that you were still around.
Em Em7 C
But we know for you to tear the threads away
G A7 D7
Would be difficult, so I just wanna say.
G C G C
"We caught your show at the Orpheum last night
G C G ~
And it took me back to when everything was right
Em Em7 C
And the pictures that she made are all redrawn
G A7 G
But they're incomplete like some unfinished song"
INTERLUDE:
Bm C G D G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(ah ah ah)
C G C
"I guess retirement's been treating us alright
G C G ~
But the house has seemed so quiet now at night
Em Em7 C
And her older sister's child is getting grown
G A7 D7
And our oldest, well, she's hardly ever home
G C G C
"It's funny how the river twists and turns
G C G ~
You run back across the bridge before it burns
Em Em7 C
But no matter what, when all is said and done
G A7 G
I always thought one day I'd call you 'Son'"
INTERLUDE:
Bm C G D G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(ah ah ah)
Bm C D G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh
N.C. G C G C
"She doesn't really come 'round home too much
G C G ~
And the past is something she doesn't like to touch
Em Em7 C
And I watch her try to never let it show
G A7 D7
How she hides her eyes when we hear you on the radio
G C G C
"No matter how we wished things could change
G C G ~
I guess, the more they're bound to stay the same
Em Em7 C
But we know you always did the best you could
G A7 G
Much more than just anybody would"

N.C. G C G C
Well, I watched him as he turned to walk away
G C G ~
Another smile and one more friendly wave
Em Em7 C
And as he pulled his car out from the curb
G A7 D7
I realised I hadn't said a single word
G C G C
Well, I wonder just how long that she'll pretend
G C G ~
Will she race her foolish pride right 'til the end?
Em Em7 C
And she'll keep that heart a secret, I suppose
G A7 G C G
But somehow a father always knows
C G C G
And he said, "I'm sorry for the way that things went down"
