[Intro 1]
[G][F][G][C][Am][Em][D][G][C]
[G][C][G][C][G]
An only [C]child alone

[Verse 1]
[G]and wild,
[Bm]a cabinet maker's [C]son
[Am]His hands were meant
for dif[Em]ferent work
And his [Am]heart was known [C]to none[D]
[G]He left his hom[C]e and wen[G]t
his lone [Bm]and solitary [C]way
And he [Am]gave to me [Em]a gift I know I ne[Am]ver ca[D]n
[G]re [C]pay
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 2]
A quiet [C]man of [G]mu sic denied
[Bm]a simpler fate[C]
[Am]He tried to be a soldier[Em] once,
but his [Am]music wouldn't [C]wait[D]
[G]He earned his lov[C]e through disciplin[G]e,
a thun[Bm]dering velvet [C]hand
His [Am]gentle means [Em]of sculpting souls
took me [Am]years to [D]under[G]stand

[Verse 3]
[C]The leader of the ban[Bm]d is tired and
his [C]eyes are grow[G]ing old
But his [Am]blood runs through [Em]my instrument
and his [Am]song is in my [F]soul[D]
[C]My life has been a poo[Bm]r attempt
[C]to imitate the[G] man[Am]
I'm just a living [Em]legacy to the [Am]leader [C]of
[G]the ban[C]d
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
My brother's [C]lives were dif[G]ferent
for they [Bm]heard another [C]call
[Am]One went to [Em]Chicago
and the [Am]other to St [C]Paul[D]
[G]And I'm in Col[C]orado[G] when
I'm [Bm]not in some [C]hotel
[Am]Living out this [Em]life I've chose and [Am]come [D]to know so [G]well[C]
[G]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Am][Em][D]
[G][C][G][C][G][C][G]
I thank you [C]for the mu

[Verse 5]
[G]sic and
your [Bm]stories of the [C]road
[Am]I thank you for the [Em]freedom when
it [Am]came my time to [C]go[D]
[G]I thank you[C] for the[G] kindness and
[Bm]the times when you got [C]tough
And [Am]papa, I don't [Em]think I said
I [Am]love you [D]near [G]enough

[Verse 6]
[C]The leader of the ban[Bm]d is tired
and his [C]eyes are [G]growing old
But his [Am]blood runs through my [Em]instrument
and his [Am]song is in my [F]soul[G][D]
[C]My life has been a poo[Bm]r at
[G]tempt [C]to imitate the[G] man
I'm [Am]just a living [Em]legacy to the
[Am]leader [C]of [G]the ban[Am]d
[G]I a[Am]m a livin[Em]g legacy to the lea[Am]der of [D]the ban[G]d
[C]
