[Intro]
D G D Dsus4 D

[Verse]
D Dsus4
My father had so much to tell me, things he said I had to know
G D
Don't make my mistakes, there are rules you can't break but I had to find out on my own
G
Now when I look my own son, I know what my father went thru
D
There's only so much you can do
A7
You're proud when they walk, and scared when they run
D
That's how it always has been between fathers and sons

[Chorus]
G D
It's a bridge you can't cross, it's a cross you can't bear
A7 D
It's the words you can't say, things you can't change, no matter how much you care
G D
So you do all you can, but then you gotta let go
A7 D
You're just part of the flow of a river that runs between fathers and sons

[Intro]
D
Your mother will try to protect you, and hold you as long as she can
G D
But the higher you climb the more you will see that's something that I understand
G
One day you'll look at your own son, there'll be so much that you want to say
D
But he'll have to find his own way
A7
On the road he must take, the course he must run
D
That's how it always has been between fathers and sons

[Chorus]
G D
It's a bridge you can't cross, it's a cross you can't bear
A7 D
It's the words you can't say, the things you can't change, no matter how much you care
G D
So you do all you can, but then you gotta let go
A7 G A7 D
You're just part of the flow of a river that runs between fathers and sons
