Verse:
Am
I don't know if you'll hear this song 
           Em
And if you do you might not know 
           Bm
That it's a tribute to the man 
         Am
who made our world go around 

Am
I don't know if you'll hear this song 
           Em
But if you do you're not alone 
    Bm
So dance while you can and cry while you can 
     Am
Let the world go around 

Chorus:
C               D
And if you will have me 
          G                 C
I want to be the son that I was 
                D
And if you will have me 
          G                   C
I want to be the boy from the photograph 

I miss the daily phonecall 
And I miss the good advice 
And my brother misses everything 
He's just looking for you 

It's the longest of goodbyes 
So many lows and no real highs 
It seems so little that we can do 
is the glimpses of you 

And if you will have me 
I want to be the son that I was 
And if you will have me 
I want to be the boy from the photograph 

You can't fight life 
So dance while you can 

You can't fight life 
so just dance while you can 

And if you will have me 
I want to be the since I was 
And if you will have me 
I want to be the boy from the photograph 

And if you will have me 
I want to be the son that I was 
And if you will have me 
I want to be the boy from the photograph
