Em C D Eriff
Shut off the t.v and peel off those sunday gloves,
Am Em D Eriff
And I`ll stain the clean that you've been counting,
Em C D Griff
Old Mr. Fletcher passed by here today,
Am Em D Eriff
After 40 years of toil he just up and walked away,
Em C D Eriff
Fantastic the panic that showed in his eyes,
Am Em D Eriff
He shrugged when I asked him about it,
Em C D Griff
He said "young man pay heed, you listen well to what I say,
AmEmDEm
Now there comes a time for a man to walk away",
DEm
Walk away, I'll be a parade,
CB5
And I'll be determined that no one shall
EmC
Dissuade on my way,
DGCB5
I'll sure take some time to burn all the bridges
Eriff
That I'm leaving behind,
Em C D Eriff
He passed by again and he was shivering from the cold,
Am Em D Eriff

Em C D Griff
He told me about the weather and something old to pay,
AmEmDEm
"But " he said, "I'm gonna surely walk away"
DEm
Walk away, I'll be a parade,
CB5
And I'll be determined that no one shall
EC
Dissuade on my way,
DGCB5
I'll take my sweet time and burn all the bridges
Eriff
That I'm leaving behind,
