The Old Man *[C] - The Furys's G C The tears have all been shed now D G We've said our last good--byes Em His soul's been blessed Am He's laid to rest A D And it's now I feel a--lone G C He was more than just a father D G A teacher, my best friend Em He can still be heard Am In the tunes we shared A D When we play them on our own. [Chorus] C G No I nev--ver will forget him C G For he made me what I am C Though he may be gone D Em Memories linger on C D G And I miss him…...the old man G C As a boy, he'd take me walk--ing D G By mountain field and stream Em And he showed me things Am Not known to kings A D And secret between him and me G C Like the colours of the pheas--ant D G As he rises in the dawn Em Am And how to fish and make a wish A D Be--side the holy tree. [Chorus] C G No I nev--ver will forget him C G For he made me what I am C Though he may be gone D Em Memories linger on C D G And I miss him…...the old man G C I thought he'd live for--ever D G He seemed so big and strong Em But the minutes fly Am And the years roll by A D For a father and a son G C And sud--denly, when it hap--pened D G There was so much left un--said Em No second chance Am To tell him thanks A D For everything he's done. [Chorus] C G No I nev--ver will forget him C G For he made me what I am C Though he may be gone D Em Memories linger on C D G And I miss him…...the old man
