CAPO II INTRO: D G D Dsus4 D D Dsus4 My father had so much to tell me, things he said I had to know G D Don't make my mistakes, there are rules you can't break but I had to find out on my own G Now when I look my own son, I know what my father went thru D There's only so much you can do A7 You're proud when they walk, and scared when they run D That's how it always has been between fathers and sons CHORUS: G D It's a bridge you can't cross, it's a cross you can't bear A7 D It's the words you can't say, things you can't change, no matter how much you care G D So you do all you can, but then you gotta let go A7 D You're just part of the flow of a river that runs between fathers and sons INTRO D Your mother will try to protect you, and hold you as long as she can G D But the higher you climb the more you will see that's something that I understand G One day you'll look at your own son, there'll be so much that you want to say D But he'll have to find his own way A7 On the road he must take, the course he must run D That's how it always has been between fathers and sons CHORUS: G D It's a bridge you can't cross, it's a cross you can't bear A7 D It's the words you can't say, the things you can't change, no matter how much you care G D So you do all you can, but then you gotta let go A7 G D7 You're just part of the flow of a river that runs between fathers and sons
