Standard (EADGBE)
I knew an old man who kept to himself
He lived all alone
He spent every day, in his boat
On a pond behind his home
(continue chord progression)
One day the old man asked me to join him on his boat
And help him break his bread
I asked him why he was what he was
And this is what he said
(bridge)
Said to me, look into my eyes
Don't let your love leave you nigh
Don't let life pass you by tonight
And don't be afraid to fly
(chorus)
Sing to the stones of latter day nights
Let the river of life wash away the tears
Feim
Don't let love pass you by tonight
Latter day nights sing to the stones
(vs2: same chords as vs1)
And as I gazed into the pools that were his ancient eyes
A tear rolled down his cheek, the old man began to cry
What i've done, what i've done, what i've done is nothing at all
What i've done, what i've done, what i've done is nothing at all
Son listen to me let me teach you a thing or two
Open your eyes, how it turns out in the end is up to you
Keep your eyes on the light keep walking forward
Never look back and look em straight in the eye
Life is the greatest adventure of them all
You're only here for so much time, you might as well live
(Chorus)2x
(bridge)
(Chorus)
Thats pretty much it, these guys are pretty new but ther're really good, enjoy!
