[Verse 1]
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
There I was just mindin' my own business
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
When I saw a shadow out the corner of my eye
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
I'd seen that shadow once before, in my life
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
Well, it was the day my Father died
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
So I turned and I fled, but that shadow gave chase
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
Caught me down a dead end way
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G#G#
To my surprise when he opened his mouth
G minorGm        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA      G minorGm
Well, I could hear my Father say

[Chorus]
A augmentedA                    Bb majorBb  F minorFm
He said, "Son, I know just where you've been, yeah
Bb majorBb     G#G#               G minorGm
and I know just how you'll meet your end.
A augmentedA                     F minorFm  Bb majorBb
You better turn from the path that you're on
G#G#                  G minorGm
lest you end up just like your old man.
G#G#       G minorGm        Bb majorBb
HOLD UP, WAIT A augmentedA MINUTE there man! Like...
    A augmentedA       G#G#
Did you forget who you were?
      G minorGm       Bb majorBb  A augmentedA
You used to beat my mother down.
G#G#    G minorGm          Bb majorBb     A augmentedA    G#G#
Well, she left your sorry ass, because you wouldn't choose

[Verse 2]
G minorGm        Bb majorBb    G minorGm
your wife and son over your booze.
A augmentedA   Bb majorBb   A augmentedA   F minorFm  Bb majorBb    G#G#          G minorGm
Now, I ain't a damn thing, like the man you USED to be.
A augmentedA                  F minorFm  Bb majorBb
You better go back to where you belong, ohh
G#G#               G minorGm
and maybe then you'll begin to see
Bb majorBb  A augmentedA  G#G#  G minorGm  Bb majorBb  A augmentedA  G#G#
Ohhhhh
G minorGm  A augmentedA  G#G#  Bb majorBb  G minorGm
Oooooh

[Fade out]
