DIn the fights they had he'd cover up his ears
Thought big boys don't cry, fought back aEmll the D/Ftears G
GMama'd use her make up, to hide the bruises on his fDace G D
In the mAorning they'd pretend that there'd nGever ever been a tDrace
DHis old man woke him up to help him find the car
Take the bus uptown outside Emsome ruD/Fndown bar G
GAnd swore that he was quittin, and then he'd start to crDy G D
And though the bAoy knew the truth sometimes he'd sGtill believe that lDie
When the sGins of the father are the sins of the son
All yDou do is crawl when you Bmwanna run
And EmGod gave boys their mamas cause
They D/Falways see their promise
And they hGelp them undersD/Ftand Em
AHow to walk like a mDan Bm
Walk like a Emman G
They mDoved a lot of places, they never settled down
It got pretty old being the nEmew kid D/Fin town G
GHe always told his friends, my daddy's sick todDay G D
Said he'd be rAich if he had a nickel every tGime he heard his mama sDay
The sGins of the father are the sins of the son
DCrawl before you walk, boy, Bmwalk before you run
EmCome on, stand up straight
I'm D/Fproud of you
Take my hGandD/F, I know you Emcan
AWalk like a mDan Bm
Walk like a Emman G
AYour daddy's demons are cDallin' yoGur name
ADon't you listen to them cause they've Dgot no clGaim
ATemptations may come, that aDin't no sGin
You get sEmtronger every time that youD/F don't give Gin A
The sGins of the father are the sins of the son
DYou can't undo what Bmhas been done
EmYou'll have to retrace his fD/Footsteps
Through the sGand D/F
And pray you Bmfind the love of a gE7irl
And tGake her by the D/Fhand
And wEmalk on A
Walk like a Bm A Gman
