[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Eb
All I hear are stories About this man before me
Ab
Like he was some type of God Who lost his shot
Eb
And just the other morning The sun was shining brighter then usual
Ab
I had to stop Look up at the sky and wonder
Eb
What would life be like if all those Stories they told were right
Ab
If he were still here
Eb
Would he walk and talk the same Would he still remember my name
Ab
Tell me would he still care Would he still care
[Pre Chorus]
Gm Cm
I know its crazy to even question those types of things
Ab
But it's been so long that I forgot now I don't even have memories
[Chorus]
Cm Eb
Just the other day
Ab
I saw a photograph of a man who looked like me
Bb Cm
He smiled the same and I saw similarities
Eb Ab Bb
And every time I close my eyes I know he’s close by
Cm Eb
Just the other day
Ab
I saw a photograph of a stranger I once knew
Bb Cm
Yet everything I do is all because of you
Eb Ab Bb
And late at night I close my eyes I know he’s close by
[Verse 2]
Eb
The spark that lit the fire A younger boy trying to rule the world now
Eb/Ab
Forced to learn alone How to make it on my own
Eb
I know I can take it higher Higher than he ever did before –
Eb/Ab
I will show everyone back home That my heart is turned to stone
Eb
I may never get that chance to say those things I should have said
Eb/Ab
I still put the blame on me At times I wish it was me instead
Eb Eb
Now all I have are photographs of a man I barely knew
Eb/Ab
Would he be the man these people say I hope this man is proud of me
[Pre Chorus]
Gm Cm
I know its crazy to even question those types of things
Ab
But it's been so long that I forgot now I don't even have memories
[Chorus]
