Intro:  F Bb  F Bb

      F                      Bb
After seventeen years behind bars

    Bb                    F
And lookin back on his mistakes

   F                           Bb
He sat down and poured out his heart

         G                   C
When his son came to see him today

Dm              C          Bb
He spoke with a voice that trembled

Dm       C             Bb
Tryin to hold back the tears

        Bb           Am        Gm
He said I ain't been much of a father
 
      Bb                         C
Son I wish I could turn back the years


      Bb
Cause life's like a river

        F
And the water is deep

C
Cross it with care

          F
Or you'll end up like me

Bb        C
Let my mistakes

   F            Bb
Be your steppin stones

    Gm                     C          F
And walk on the rocks that I stumbled on


F Bb   F Bb
(piano + violin)

        F                      Bb
He said son stay away from the bottle

      Bb                      F
Watch out for the company you keep

    F                    Bb
And hold on to those you love

      G                        C
Cause love is a man's greatest need

Dm            C          Bb
The right way may not be easy

Dm             C            Bb
The right road ain't always straight

Bb                Am         Gm
Son, please don't follow the footsteps

     Bb                 C
That lead to where I am today


      Bb
Cause life's like a river

        F
And the water is deep

C
Cross it with care

          F
Or you'll end up like me

Bb        C
Let my mistakes

F               Bb
Be your steppin stones

    Gm                     C          F
And walk on the rocks that I stumbled on

And walk on the rocks that I stumbled on
