G C G
An only child alone and wild
Bm C
A cabinet maker son
Am Em
His hands were meant for different work
Am C D
and his heart was known to none
G C G
He left his home and went his lone
Bm C
and solitary way
Am Em D7 G C
And he gave to me a gift I know I never can repay


G C G
A quiet man of music
Bm C
Denied a simpler fate
Am Em
He tried to be a soldier once
Am C D
But his music wouldn't wait
G C G
He earned his love through disipline
Bm C
A thundering velvet hand
Am Em
His gentle means of sculpting souls
D7 G C G
Took me years to understand

C Bm C G
The leader of the band is tired his eyes are growing old
Am Em
But his blood runs through my instrument
Am F
and his song is in my soul
C Bm C G
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
Am Em Am G
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band

G C G
My brother's lives are different
Bm C
For they heard another call
Am Em
One went to Chicago
Am C D
and the other to St Paul
G C G
And I'm in Colorado
Bm C
When I'm not in some hotel
Am Em
Living the life I chose
D7 G C
And come to know so well


G C G
I thank you for the music
Bm C
And your stories of the road
Am Em
I thank you for the freedom
Am C D
When it came my time to go
G C G
I thank you for your kindness
Bm C
And the times when you got tough
Am Em
And papa I don't think I said
D7 G C G
I love you near enough

C Bm C G
The leader of the band is tired his eyes are growing old
Am Em
But his blood runs through my instrument
Am F
and his song is in my soul
C Bm C G
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
Am Em Am G
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band
