[Verse 1]
Gm Bb A G#
There I was just mindin' my own business
Gm Bb A G#
When I saw a shadow out the corner of my eye
Gm Bb A G#
I'd seen that shadow once before, in my life
Gm Bb A G#
Well, it was the day my Father died
Gm Bb A G#
So I turned and I fled, but that shadow gave chase
Gm Bb A G#
Caught me down a dead end way
Gm Bb A G#
To my surprise when he opened his mouth
Gm Bb A Gm
Well, I could hear my Father say
[Chorus]
A Bb Fm
He said, "Son, I know just where you've been, yeah
Bb G# Gm
and I know just how you'll meet your end.
A Fm Bb
You better turn from the path that you're on
G# Gm
lest you end up just like your old man.
G# Gm Bb
HOLD UP, WAIT A MINUTE there man! Like...
A G#
Did you forget who you were?
Gm Bb A
You used to beat my mother down.
G# Gm Bb A G#
Well, she left your sorry ass, because you wouldn't choose
[Verse 2]
Gm Bb Gm
your wife and son over your booze.
A Bb A Fm Bb G# Gm
Now, I ain't a damn thing, like the man you USED to be.
A Fm Bb
You better go back to where you belong, ohh
G# Gm
and maybe then you'll begin to see
Bb A G# Gm Bb A G#
Ohhhhh
