[VERSE 1]

D                   A
Down our long dusty driveway
Bm                G
I didn't want to go
      D     A       G                A
But I set out with tears in my eyes wondering
D             A
Daddy took me by the hand
Bm                                G
Looked out at the school bus and his little man and said
D            A                  G       A
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"


[CHORUS]
        G                     A
Cause I took this walk you're walking now
     G          A       D
Boy, I've been in your shoes
        G                   A
And you can't hold back the hands of time
          G                       A
It's just something you've got to do
   Em               F#m             G                 A
So dry your eyes I understand just what you're going through
        G                        A
Cause I took this same walk with my old man
     G          A       D    A    D    A
Boy, I've been in your shoes

[VERSE 2]

D                   A
Down our long dusty driveway
Bm                G
I set my mind to go
      D     A        G                A
I was eighteen and wild and free and wondering
D             A
Daddy took me by the hand
Bm                          G
Looked at the world and at his grown man and said
D            A                  G     A
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"


[CHORUS]

        G                     A
Cause I took this walk you're walking now
     G          A       D
Boy, I've been in your shoes
        G                   A
And you can't hold back the hands of time
          G                       A
It's just something you've got to do
   Em               F#m            G                 A
So dry your eyes I understand just what you're going through
        G                        A
Cause I took this same walk with my old man
     G          A       D   A   D   A
Boy, I've been in your shoes


[VERSE 3]

D                   A
Down our long dusty driveway
Bm                       G
This time we both would go
       D      A       G                     A
He had grown old and gray and his mind was wandering
D             A
Daddy took me by the hand
Bm                                   G
Said, "I know where we're going and I understand
D           A                  G     A
Don't worry boy it will be all right"


[CHORUS]

        G                     A
Cause I took this walk you're walking now
     G          A       D
Boy, I've been in your shoes
        G                   A
And you can't hold back the hands of time
          G                       A
It's just something you've got to do
   Em               F#m            G                 A

     G          A       D

Boy, I've been in your shoes
