Capo 1
Intro:
G7/B C, Am Em D
G C/G (3x) G
Verse 1:
G C/G G
An only child alone and wild,
Bm C
A cabinet maker's son
Am Em
His hands were meant for different work
Am C D
And his heart was known to none
G C/G G
He left his home and went his lone
Bm C
And solitary way
Am Em
And he gave to me a gift I know
Am D7 (Int.)
I never can repay
Interlude: G C/G (3x) G
Verse 2:
G C/G G
A quiet man of music,
Bm C
Denied a simpler fate
Am Em
He tried to be a soldier once
Am C D
But his music wouldn't wait
G C/G G
He earned his love through discipline,
Bm C
A thund'ring velvet hand
Am Em
His gentle means of sculpting souls
Am D7 G ( Am7 Bm7 )
Took me years to understand
Chorus:
C Bm
The leader of the band is tired
C G ( Am7 Bm7 )
And his eyes are growing old
Am Em
But his blood runs through my instrument
Am F D
And his song is in my soul
C Bm
My life has been a poor attempt,
C G ( Am7 Bm7 )
To imitate the man
Am Em
I'm just a living legacy
Am C (Int.)
To the leader of the band
Interlude: G C/G (3x) G
Verse 3:
G C/G G
My brothers' lives were different
Bm C
For they heard another call
Am Em Am C D
One went to Chicago, and the other to St. Paul
G C/G G Bm C
And I'm in Colorado when I'm not in some hotel
Am Em
Living out this life I chose
Am D7 G C/G G
And come to know so well
Adlib:
G7/B C, Am Em D,
G C/G (3x) G
Verse 4:
G C/G G
I thank you for the music
Bm C
And your stories of the road
Am Em
I thank you for the freedom
Am C D
When it came my time to go
G C/G G
I thank you for the kindness
Bm C
And the times when you got tough
Am Em
And Papa, I don't think I said
Am D7 G ( Am7 Bm7 )
"I love you" near enough
Chorus:
C Bm
The leader of the band is tired
C G ( Am7 Bm7 )
And his eyes are growing old
Am Em
But his blood runs through my instrument
Am F D
And his song is in my soul
C Bm
My life has been a poor attempt,
C G ( Am7 Bm7 )
To imitate the man
Am Em
I'm just a living legacy
Am C G ( Am7 Bm7 )
To the leader of the band
Outro:
Am Em
I am a living legacy
Am C G C/G (3x) G
To the leader of the band
G7/B C, Am Em D G
