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
