Standard (EADGBE)
Intro. : - - -
Stanza I:
Like a boat on the river, this bus is floatin down this old highway
Lookin out the window, I think about how I got here today
Anyone whos anywhere had some help gettin there its true
And one of the reasons why I get to do the things I do
Chorus i
I met this angel with callous hands who let this boy into his band
Under his wing, I learned to fly on these six strings through this life
You can hear him in my playin although hes gone
And I owe him so much more just this song
Stanza II:
Like a leaf that had fallen, I was driftin down the stream
Mister guitar came into my life and let me build this dream
His old Gretchs still speakin, its teachin all of us a ton
He was my A friend and my hero all wrapped up in one
Chorus ii
I met this angel with callous hands who let this naïve boy into his band
Under his wing I learned to fly on these six strings into the light
I can still hear him playin although hes gone
And I owe him so much more than just this song
Bridge
Every fake we see from every take we roll
With every note we play even though theyre gone
They live on,
they ive on...
