Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 Ten more years and a waiting room

 At half past one

 And the doctor said come in and meet your son

 His knees went weak

 When he saw his wife

 She was smiling as she said he's got your eyes

And as she slept he held her tight

His mind went back to that first night

(Chorus)

 He was walking her home

 And holding her hand

 Oh the way she smiled it stole the breath right out of him

 Down that old road

 With the stars up above

 He remembers where he was the night he fell in love

 He was walking her home

(Bridge)

He walked her through the best days of her life

Sixty years together and he never left her side

(Verse 3)

 A nursing home

 At eighty-five

 And the doctor said it could be her last night

 And the nurse said Oh

 Should we tell him now

 Or should he wait until the morning to find out

But when they checked her room that night

He was laying by her side

(Chorus)

 He was walking her home

 And holding her hand

 Oh the way she smiled it stole the breath right out of him

 Down that old road

 With the stars up above

 He remembers where he was the night he fell in love

 He was walking her home

 Looking back

 He sees it all

 It was her first date the night he came to call
