🎸 Verse:

      E MajorE
When I was young, I had this feeling
I didn’t know that I would miss
      C# minorC#m
You were a man, I didn’t know
      E MajorE
For I was young, and you were old
      BB         A augmentedA
when you were gone, I made my peace
      E MajorE
But I miss you

      E MajorE
When I grew up, It wasn’t easy
But you said, son, just bear with me
       C# minorC#m
You tough me much of family
      E MajorE
I miss the time when you were here
      BB       A augmentedA
You are a woman of great prestige
      E MajorE
At least to me

🎸 Chorus:
A augmentedA     BB        C# minorC#m BB
But now,oh now I am on my own
     A augmentedA       BB         C# minorC#m BB
Its been years since I last have seen your face
     A augmentedA         BB     F# minorF#m        BB
Once you were there by my side, after all the tears have dried
    A augmentedA           A/BA/B         E MajorE
I have never felt alone like this, when you were here

When I was weak, you cared for me

You can count on me
