Further Intro Em C (repeat 3 more times)

[Verse]

Em                                   C              Em         C
Lately I've been noticing I say the same things he used to say
Em                     C                    Em  C
And I even find myself acting the very same way
         D
I tap my fingers on the table to the rhythm in my soul
      C
And I jingle the car keys when I'm ready to go
        D
When I look in the mirror he's right there in my eyes
        C
Staring back at me, and I realise

[Chorus]

            G                   D
The older I get, the more I can see
             Em                     C
How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me
       G                     D
And he did the best that he could
           Em               C           Am
And I only hope when I have my own family
     Em          C
That every day I see
         D                    Em  C  Em  C
A little more of my father in me

[Verse]

           Em                                  C                  Em  C
There were times I thought he was being just a little bit hard on me
           Em                           C                         
But now I understand he was making me become the man he knew that I 
   Em      C
could be

          D
And every-thing he ever did he always did with love
        C
And I'm proud today to say I'm his son
          D
When some-body says I hope I get to meet your dad
         C
I just smile and say, you already have

[Chorus]

            G                    D
The older I get, the more I can see
            Em                      C
How much he loved my mother, and my brother and me
       G                    D
And he did the best that he could
           Em               C           Am
And I only hope when I have my own family
     Em          C
That every day I see
         D                  C
A little more of my father in me

[Verse]

            G                D
He's in my eyes, my heart my soul
             Em
My hands my pride
           C                                 G
And when I feel alone and I think I can't go on
                   D                 Em    C    G
I hear him saying, Son you'll be all riii.......ght
     D                     Em     C         G  D
Everything is gonna be all right, yes it is

[Verse]

            G                   D
The older I get, the more I can see
   Em                      C
He loved my mother, and my brother and me
       G                       D
And he did, the best that he could
           Em               C           Am
And I only hope when I have my own family

Em          C         D           Am
Every day I see, oh I hope I see
       Em           C
I hope every day I see,
         D
A little more of my father in me

[Outro]

Em  C
A little more of my father in me
Em  C
I hope every day I see in me
Em  C
In me, in me
Em  C
I hope every day I see
Em  C
A little more of my father in me
