He was the kind of man that good men talk about
                                                                  Bb
The way he showed his faith was how he lived it out
         Gm                                                                                Eb
His hands were rough and calloused and his shoes were old and torn
                Cm                                                                                F
And the lines that framed his smile were lines so well and deep and worn
      Eb                                              Dm                                                  Cm
So what will be remembered    of what he left behind?
                                                F4             F
What will stand the test of time?

Wrap your arms around your children and pray with them each night
              Bb                                                                            F/A

He worked a second job to make the ends all meet
                                                                Bb
But somehow managed to always be there for me
Gm                                                                       Eb
Taught me how to listen and how to stand for what is right

And he showed me all the things that really matter in this life

And as i look into the eyes of my daughters and my sons
                                                                                       Bb
I hope i’ve stood for something that they’ll want to carry on
             Gm                    F                        Eb            Dm
'cause life is far too short not to finally realize
                 Cm                              Dm                                Eb                          F                       G
