Intro: Bm G D A 

 Bm
I walked the steps of my father today
  G
Worked till I froze and my face turned grey
  D                                             G
And all of my fingers calloused and worn to the bone
  Bm
And I felt like a child in a world full of men
  G
Trying to capture that something again
  D                                   G
Strong as an ox but slowly turning to stone

  Bm                     G
Walking away from this room dark and grey
  Bm                     G
Smoke hangs in clouds and the old echo plays

  D
And the music is soft
  A
And the voice it is hushed
  Bm
And the boy he has loved
  G
And the man he has lost

   D     A            Bm
And I walk out in the rain
  G
All over again

(Bm G D A)

  Bm           
I felt the touch of my mother today
  G
Gently pushing me forward again
  D                                 G
Closing my eyes but still feeling the way
  Bm
And I'm clutching at fingers through crumples & creases
  G
I came to my senses it cut me to pieces
  D                                 G
'Cause I needed more but I was pulling away

  Bm                     G
Walking alone with these legs made of stone
  Bm                   G
I'm almost dry and I'm almost home

  D
Where the photographs smile
  A
And I'm still someone's child
  Bm
And my place it is set
  G
So I'll stay for a while

  D         A          Bm
Till I walk out in the rain
 G
Like water would stain
  D         A          Bm      G
And I'm born all over again, and I

  D           A      
And I walked
            Bm      G
Out in the rain
