Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

During violin solo)

Further Intro Em C (repeat 3 more times)

Lately I've been noticing I say the same things he used to say

And I even find myself acting the very same way

I tap my fingers on the table to the rhythm in my soul

And I jingle the car keys when I'm ready to go

When I look in the mirror he's right there in my eyes

Staring back at me, and I realise

Chorus

The older I get, the more I can see

How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me

And he did the best that he could

And I only hope when I have my own family

That every day I see

A little more of my father in me

There were times I thought he was being just a little bit hard on me

But now I understand he was making me become the man he knew that I could be

And every-thing he ever did he always did with love

And I'm proud today to say I'm his son

When some-body says I hope I get to meet your dad

I just smile and say, you already have

Chorus

The older I get, the more I can see

How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me

And he did the best that he could

And I only hope when I have my own family

That every day I see

A little more of my father in me

He's in my eyes, my heart my soul

My hands my pride

And when I feel alone and I think I can't go on

I hear him saying, Son you'll be all riii.......ght

Everything is gonna be all right, yes it is

The older I get, the more I can see

He loved my mother, and my brother and me

And he did, the best that he could

And I only hope when I have my own family

Every day I see, oh I hope I see

I hope every day I see,

A little more of my father in me

Em C for the rest until end

A little more of my father in me

I hope every day I see in me

In me, in me

I hope every day I see

A little more of my father in me
