Intro.: E G#m A B E 

      E                   G#m         
There was a man I used to call him dad 
       A                            B 
But he left long before I knew just what I had 
    E                            G#m 
And now I miss him so he was the greatest man 
     A    B   E     
I'll e----ver know 
 
The day he died I was by his side 

But I turned away to hide the tears I cried 

I never let it show that he's the greatest man 

I'll ever know 
G                   D 
In my heart I still feel the pain 
       C                          D 
When I see him there playing that song again 
           G                   D 
There were times I'd sit there by his side 
        C                          D 
When he played a song and listened all night long 
 
I'd look above to see if I can see 

That man I love watching over me 

I smile and say hello to the greatest man 

I'll ever know 
        G 
I do my best to be 
         D               C 
Half the man that he was all his life 
           D 
So he'd be proud of me 
             G                          D 
He said just take it slow you'll be the greatest man 
     C    D   G    G7  
I'll e----ver know 
           C                 C    D   G 
He was the greatest man I'll e----ver know
