Verse One:
C#m E
My old man is a lonely tree
B E
Sitting on a branch in a lonely sea
C#m E
When I first met him I thought how
B E
Could he have let my mother down
Chorus One:
F#m C#m
But my old man he came to see me
E B
He put his hand in mine and said he loved me
F#m C#m
Well I was burned up with ill feeling
E
But his eyes they said it all
B
I forgave him for his fall
C#m
Verse Two:
C#m E
And in the summer he�s a summer breeze
B E
Shooting at all his possibilities
C#m E
He prays to god to fix him up
B E
But he plays with the devil to fill his cup
//Chorus Two//
F#m C#m
My old man is good at singing
E B
He plays the guitar like Carlos Santana should have done
F#m C#m
To be a broken man it hurts his feelings
E
But we are what we have done
B
Sweet souls setting in the sun
C#m

Verse Three:
C#m E
My old man is as soft as rain
B E
Humming through the night to forget his pain
C#m E
It runs through the family from what I hear
B E
But it only draws me near
//Chorus Two//
F#m C#m
My old man is good at singing
E B
He plays the guitar like Carlos Santana should have done
F#m C#m
To be a broken man it hurts his feelings
E
But we are what we have done
B
Sweet souls setting in the sun
C#m
