Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I was born in 6[G]5[D]
[G]Some [D]years before my
[G]grandpa [D]died[G]
[D]One day daddy did[G]n't come [D]home[G]
[D]So mama raised her [G]kids [D]alone[G][D]
[A]I r[Bm]ecall my daddy,[A]
as a [G]man I did not [D]know
[Bm]Through the years I [A]wondered,
did he [G]ever miss to watch his son grow
[A]Through the eye[G]s of
a child he was a [D]hero
Like a [Bm]general on his horse
he seems so [F#]tall
But [G]soon I learned the truth runs in [D]circles
Now the [F#]old man's just an
old man after [Bm]all[A]
[D]Started school where I [G]learned to [D]swear[G]
[D]An d parents taught their [G]kids to [D]stare
[G]Cau[D]se they all knew that dad[G]dy ran
[D]An [G]d I[D] couldn't
make them [G]understand
[D]I r[G]eca[D]ll [Bm]my daddy as[A]
a [G]man I did not [D]know
[Bm]Through the years I [A]wondered
Did he [G]ever miss to watch
his son [A]grow?
Through the [G]eyes of a child he was a [D]hero
Like a [Bm]general on his horse
he seemed so [F#]tall
But [G]soon I learned the truth runs in [D]circles
Now the [F#]old man's just an
old man after [Bm]all[A]
[D]Well, Mama made me [G]what I [D]am[G]
[D]She raised her kids with
a [G]gentle [D]hand[G]
[D]Late some nights we could
[G]hear her [D]cry[G]
[D]But we were young so we
[G]never knew [D]why[G][D]
[Bm]I recall my dadd[A]y as a
[G]man I did not [D]know
[Bm]Through the years I [A]wondered,
did he [G]ever miss to watch
his son [A]grow?
Through the [G]eyes of a child he was a [D]hero,
like a [Bm]general on his horse
he seemed so [F#]tall
But [G]soon I learned the truth runs in [D]circles,
now the [F#]old man's just an old man
after [Bm]all[A][D][A][Bm][A][G]
[D]Oh[Bm][A][G][A][G][D][Bm]
[F#][G][D][F#][Bm]
[A]I h[D]ope I meet him agai[G]n someday
[D]Though [G]I d[D]on't know
what [G]I'm gonna [D]say[G]
[D]He ought to know that [G]his boy is fine
[D]He [G]oug[D]ht to know he ain't
no [G]father of [D]mine[G][D]
[Bm]I recall my da[A]ddy as a
[G]man I did [D]not know
[Bm]Through the years I [A]wondered,
did he [G]ever
To watch his son [A]grow
Through the [G]eyes of a child he was a [D]hero
Like a [Bm]general on his horse
he seemed so [F#]tall
But [G]soon I learned the truth runs in [D]circles
Now [F#]the old man's just
an old man after all
[Bm]
