[F] After 17 years [Bb] behind bars and looking back on [F] his [C] mistakes,
he sat down and poured [Bb] out his heart when [G] his son came to see [C] him today.
[Dm] He spoke [C] with a [Bb] voice that trembled,
[Dm] trying [C] to hold [Bb] back the tears.
He said, I ain't [F] been much [Gm] of a father, [Bb] son, I wish I could turn [C] back the years.
[Bb] Cause life's like a river [F] and the water is deep,
[C] cross it with care [F] or you'll end up like me.
[Bb] Let my [C] mistakes [F] be your stepping [Bb]
stones,
[Gm] and walk on the rocks [C] that I [F] stumbled on.

[Bb] He [F] said, son, stay away [Bb] from the bottom, watch out for the company [F] you keep,
and hold on to those [Bb] you love.
[G] Cause love is a man's
[C] greatest need,
[Dm] the right way [C] may not [Bb] be easy,
[Dm] the right road [C] ain't always [Bb] straight.
Son, please [F] don't follow [Gm] the footsteps that [Bb] lead to where I am [C] today.
[Bb] Cause life's like a river [F] and the water is deep,
[C] cross it with care or [F] you'll end up like me.

stones,
and
