[Verse]
Em C Em C
Lately I've been noticing I say the same things he used to say
Em C Em C
And I even find myself acting the very same way
D
I tap my fingers on the table to the rhythm in my soul
C
And I jingle the car keys when I'm ready to go
D
When I look in the mirror he's right there in my eyes
C
Staring back at me, and I realise
[Chorus]
G D
The older I get, the more I can see
Em C
How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me
G D
And he did the best that he could
Em C Am
And I only hope when I have my own family
Em C
That every day I see
D Em C Em C
A little more of my father in me
[Verse]
Em C Em C
There were times I thought he was being just a little bit hard on me
Em C Em C
But now I understand he was making me become the man he knew that I could be
D
And every-thing he ever did he always did with love
C
And I'm proud today to say I'm his son
D
When some-body says I hope I get to meet your dad
C
I just smile and say, you already have
[Chorus]
G D
The older I get, the more I can see
Em C
How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me
