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